UNSPSC 10417353: Dried cut species tulip

Dried cut bloom of the species variety of tulips

UNSPSC 10417353 Dried cut species tulip is a Commodity code that captures ornamental and cut-flower plants used in landscaping, environmental restoration, and parks-and-recreation programming by state and local governments. The recent opportunities tagged under this code reflect a mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity. The one directly relevant solicitation — Pinellas County's Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services RFP — involves native plant installation and invasive species removal across wetlands, stormwater ponds, and surface water conveyances, but does not isolate dried cut tulips as a line item; rather, it calls for a comprehensive list of 150 native plant species selected for ecological restoration. The second recent opportunity, Columbus Consolidated Government's Request for Bids for arts and craft and hobby supplies, does not specify tulips or any plant material and targets Department of Parks and Recreation programming supplies. The code shows limited recent activity specifically aligned with dried cut tulip procurement by state and local buyers.

Pinellas County, Florida posted the environmental planting RFP on February 26, 2026, with proposals due July 29, 2025, for a five-year contract period (2025–2030) with potential two 12-month extensions. The solicitation requires contractors to hold State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and Aquatic Category 5A applicator certifications and targets work at McMullen Booth Stormwater Pond, Eagle Lake Park, and McKay Creek. Columbus Consolidated Government in Georgia issued its arts-and-craft bid on February 4, 2026, due February 25, 2026, for a two-year term with three optional one-year renewals, projecting $30,000 to $50,000 in annual purchases. The code does not show sustained state or local procurement activity specifically targeting dried cut tulips, and the recent opportunities appear to use the code incorrectly for native plant installation and general craft supplies rather than dried floral stock.
