UNSPSC 10417700: Dried cut forsythias

Dried cut bloom of the forsythia type of flower

UNSPSC 10417700 Dried cut forsythias is a Class code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The two most recent solicitations tagged to this code show a significant mismatch: Pinellas County's environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services contract focuses on invasive and exotic plant removal, native plant installation, wetland ecology, and regulatory compliance across stormwater sites and natural areas; Columbus Consolidated Government's arts and craft and recreational supplies procurement covers hobby and craft materials for parks and recreation programming. Neither opportunity involves dried cut forsythias or related cut-flower or dried-botanical products that the code nominally describes. State and local procurement offices appear to use this code infrequently and without consistent alignment to its defined commodity.

The issuing bodies in the limited recent sample span county-level (Pinellas County, Florida) and consolidated city government (Columbus, Georgia) purchasing divisions. Pinellas County's RFP, posted February 26, 2026 with a proposal due date of July 29, 2025, targets environmental services contractors with State Certified Licensed Public Applicator and aquatic category certifications; Columbus Consolidated Government's RFB No. 26-0014, posted February 4, 2026 with bids due February 25, 2026, seeks arts and craft suppliers capable of shipping within ten days and maintaining discounted catalog pricing. Geographic activity in the recent block is limited to Florida and Georgia. Without meaningful alignment between the code's product definition and actual procurement activity, practitioners should treat this code as inactive for practical business development purposes in the state and local space.
