UNSPSC 10402602: Dried cut aida rose

Dried cut bloom of the aida variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402602 Dried cut aida rose is a Commodity code that nominally describes cut flower products, yet the most recent state and local solicitations posted under this code show little activity aligned with the flower-supply scope. The two recent opportunities—one from Pinellas County, Florida for environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services across wetlands and stormwater sites, and one from Columbus Consolidated Government, Georgia for arts and craft and recreational supplies—do not represent dried rose procurement. The environmental services RFP requires native plant installation and invasive species removal with specialized certifications in aquatic applicator categories and wetland ecology; the arts and craft solicitation seeks discount-priced supplies for parks department programming. Neither aligns with the code's nominal product category.

State and local procurement activity under this code appears sparse or misaligned with its scope. No recent opportunities for dried cut aida roses or related floral products are present in the source, and the two posted solicitations are substantially unrelated to the code's intended commodity. Jurisdictions seeking floral supplies or environmental planting services do not appear to be tagging those opportunities under this code in the recent window, suggesting either light demand for dried roses in state and local purchasing, systematic miscoding of opportunities, or both. Business development professionals pursuing floral-supply contracts with state and local buyers should verify current coding practices directly with target procurement offices rather than rely on this code's recent activity patterns.
