UNSPSC 10417969: Dried cut vargasii hippeastrum

Dried cut bloom of the vargasii variety of hippeastrum

UNSPSC 10417969 Dried cut vargasii hippeastrum is a Commodity code with minimal recent state and local procurement activity aligned to its nominal scope. The two recent opportunities tagged to this code show no connection to dried cut flowers or hippeastrum products. Pinellas County's RFP (250628RFP, due July 29, 2025) solicits environmental planting, monitoring, and maintenance services for wetlands and stormwater sites across a five-year term — a landscape and ecological restoration contract requiring State Certified Licensed Public Applicator certifications and expertise in native plant installation and wetland ecology. Columbus Consolidated Government's RFB No. 26-0014 (due February 25, 2026) procures arts, craft, hobby, and recreational supplies for its Parks and Recreation Department on an as-needed basis with an estimated annual volume of $30,000 to $50,000. Neither solicitation involves the purchase of dried cut flowers or hippeastrum products as the code's name suggests.

The geographic spread extends from Florida (Pinellas County) and Georgia (Columbus), with no other jurisdictions represented in recent records. Pinellas County's contract is structured on an as-needed basis with potential for two 12-month extensions beyond the initial 60-month term, while Columbus awards to multiple vendors and reserves the right to purchase through comparable cooperative contracts if costs are lower. The code shows limited recent activity relevant to the product category it nominally describes, suggesting either sparse demand for dried cut hippeastrum among state and local buyers or a tagging misalignment in the underlying opportunities database.
