UNSPSC 10402228: Dried cut oriental curiosa rose

Dried cut bloom of the oriental curiosa variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402228 Dried cut oriental curiosa rose is a Commodity code that nominally identifies preserved floral materials, but the recent state and local procurement activity tagged under it does not reflect purchases of dried flowers. Instead, Fulton County, Georgia's October 2026 ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM solicits landscape maintenance services for the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden — including quarterly upkeep of pollinator and rain gardens, selective pruning of native plants, mulch and pine straw application, pressure washing, irrigation system seasonal maintenance, integrated pest management, and installation of interpretive wildlife signage with bat boxes and bird houses. The work requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on staff and demonstrated expertise in water-efficient landscaping and habitat standards. Bids are due November 30, 2026, with a pre-bid conference on November 4 and a recommended site visit on November 10 to assess the 0.95-acre scope. The contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board of Commissioners approval. Award will go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder, with MBE and FBE participation availability at 34.71% and 11.45% respectively for this construction category.

The code shows minimal recent relevant activity — this single Georgia county opportunity appears to be misclassified under the dried-flower commodity code and does not reflect the scope of goods or services typically purchased under UNSPSC 10402228. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope (preserved oriental rose flowers) and the actual solicitation (landscape maintenance services) suggests either a data-entry error in the opportunity's UNSPSC tag or a temporary jurisdictional classification anomaly. Business development professionals should verify whether this code actually reflects procurement volume in floral materials or landscaping services before allocating resources to pursuit.
