UNSPSC 10402775: Dried cut tara rose

Dried cut bloom of the tara variety of rose

UNSPSC 10402775 Dried cut tara rose is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, does not reflect actual purchasing patterns in the public sector. The single recent opportunity tagged under this code is Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden, solicited October 16, 2026 with bids due November 30, 2026. The scope covers quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, including selective pruning of native grasses, trees, shrubs, and perennials; weeding and debris removal; mulch application (pine straw in pollinator areas, uncolored hardwood mulch in rain gardens); pressure washing of benches and pathways; seasonal plant color changes; integrated pest management; irrigation system startup, shutdown, and repair; and installation of interpretive signage with bat boxes and bird houses. This is horticultural maintenance work, not procurement of dried cut flowers. The contractor must employ a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect, demonstrate knowledge of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat standards, and provide all labor, materials, and equipment. Contract runs from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals subject to Board approval. Award criteria include price, responsiveness, responsibility, and compliance with Georgia Security and Immigration Compliance Act and E-Verify requirements. MBE availability for the construction work category is 34.71% and FBE availability is 11.45%.

The code shows minimal activity aligned with its nominal scope in recent state and local procurement. Geographic activity is limited to Georgia based on the single available opportunity. The Fulton County solicitation represents a mismatch between the UNSPSC commodity code assigned and the actual horticultural services being purchased, suggesting either data-entry error or a significant divergence between the code taxonomy and how this particular jurisdiction tagged its procurement. Without additional recent opportunities under this code, the landscape maintenance work documented here does not establish a pattern of state and local purchasing for dried cut tara roses.
