UNSPSC 10414809: Dried cut dark pink hydrangea

Dried cut bloom of the dark pink variety of hydrangeas

UNSPSC 10414809 Dried cut dark pink hydrangea is a Commodity code that nominally refers to a specific dried floral product, yet the recent state and local opportunities tagged under it reflect a substantial mismatch between the code's name and the work actually being procured. The two most recent opportunities posted under this code involve environmental planting and monitoring services in one case and general arts and craft supplies in the other — neither of which involves dried cut hydrangea or dried floral products at all. Pinellas County, Florida is soliciting comprehensive environmental management services including invasive plant removal, native plant installation, and wetland monitoring across a five-year contract period, while Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia is procuring routine arts and craft supplies for its parks and recreation divisions. The code shows minimal relevant recent activity for vendors in the dried floral or horticultural supply space.

State and local buyers appear to be using this Commodity code inconsistently or incorrectly. Pinellas County posted its RFP for Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services on June 30, 2025, with proposals due July 29, 2025, seeking State Certified Licensed Public Applicators and wetland ecology specialists for sites including McMullen Booth Stormwater Pond and Eagle Lake Park; Columbus Consolidated Government issued RFB No. 26-0014 on February 4, 2026, with bids due February 25, 2026, for arts and craft supplies supporting community recreation programs with an expected annual volume of $30,000 to $50,000. Neither solicitation is relevant to dried cut florals or hydrangea products. Vendors targeting this code should verify that state and local procurement offices have correctly classified their opportunities before investing bid preparation effort — the classification appears unreliable as currently deployed.
