UNSPSC 10402458: Dried cut red magic rose

Dried cut bloom of the red magic variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402458 Dried cut red magic rose is a Commodity code that nominally identifies a specific horticultural product, yet the most recent state and local procurement activity under this code does not align with the purchase of dried florals. Instead, Fulton County, Georgia is using the code to solicit landscape maintenance services for established pollinator and rain gardens at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden. The solicitation (ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM, due November 30, 2026) calls for comprehensive quarterly maintenance encompassing selective pruning of native grasses, trees, shrubs, and perennials; weeding and debris removal; mulch application; pressure washing of hardscape; seasonal plant color changes in garden beds and urns; irrigation system startup, shutdown, and repair; integrated pest management; and installation of interpretive signage and wildlife features such as bat boxes and bird houses. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect and demonstrate competency in water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards. The issuing body is a county government (Fulton County), and the contract term runs through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals.

This code shows minimal recent state and local activity, and the single posted opportunity represents a mismatch between the code's nominal scope (dried cut florals for retail or event use) and the work actually being procured (landscape maintenance services). Geographic activity appears limited to Georgia based on the current posted record. The pre-bid conference is scheduled for November 4, 2026, with a site visit encouraged for November 10. Award will go to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder; certified MBE and FBE participation goals are 34.71% and 11.45%, respectively, for this construction work category.
