UNSPSC 10402729: Dried cut gold rush rose

Dried cut bloom of the gold rush variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402729 Dried cut gold rush rose, a Commodity code, shows limited recent state and local procurement activity directly aligned with its narrow product scope. The two recent opportunities tagged under this code diverge significantly from dried floral materials: Pinellas County's environmental planting and monitoring services RFP calls for native plant installation, invasive species removal, and wetland restoration across multiple sites including McMullen Booth Stormwater Pond and McKay Creek, while Columbus Consolidated Government's arts and craft supplies RFB seeks general hobby and recreational materials for parks departments on an annual contract basis. Neither opportunity involves procurement of dried cut gold rush rose flowers or similar preserved botanicals, suggesting a possible tagging misalignment in the underlying procurement database rather than genuine state and local demand for this commodity.

The geographic footprint extends to Florida (Pinellas County) and Georgia (Columbus), though the activity appears episodic rather than sustained. The Pinellas County RFP, posted February 26, 2026, with a response deadline of July 29, 2025 (a retroactive date indicating a prior-year contract extension or amendment), emphasizes five-year environmental services with SBE participation thresholds; the Columbus RFB for parks and recreation supplies, due February 25, 2026, targets $30,000 to $50,000 in annual volume across multiple divisions with a two-year base and three optional one-year renewals. Neither opportunity represents genuine procurement of dried cut flowers. State and local buyers pursuing environmental restoration, native plantings, or general craft supplies do not appear to use this code for actual sourcing activity.
