UNSPSC 10417000: Dried cut sunflowers

Dried cut blooms of sunflowers

UNSPSC 10417000 Dried cut sunflowers is a Class code that shows minimal relevant recent activity in state and local procurement. The two most recent opportunities tagged to this code bear little connection to the nominal commodity — dried cut sunflowers. The first, a Pinellas County RFP for environmental planting, monitoring, reporting, and maintenance services over a five-year term, centers on invasive and exotic plant removal, native plant installation, wetland and stormwater site management, and regulatory compliance monitoring across sites including McMullen Booth Stormwater Pond, Eagle Lake Park, and McKay Creek. The second, Columbus Consolidated Government's Request for Bids 26-0014, solicits arts and craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for the Department of Parks and Recreation on an as-needed basis, with expected annual purchases of $30,000 to $50,000. Neither opportunity involves procurement of dried cut sunflowers as a product category.

The Pinellas County RFP closed July 29, 2025, and required State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A certifications, with SBE participation encouraged under a $100,000 work-assignment threshold. Columbus Consolidated's bid closes February 25, 2026, with a two-year term and three optional twelve-month renewals; qualified vendors must maintain adequate warehouse stock and ship within ten days of order receipt. The geographic spread of these two opportunities spans Florida and Georgia. Given the mismatch between the code's stated commodity and the actual scope of recent work being solicited, this code does not represent a reliable signal for dried cut sunflowers procurement at the state and local level.
