UNSPSC 10418016: Dried cut mohrii rudbeckia

Dried cut bloom of the mohrii variety of rudbeckia

UNSPSC 10418016 Dried cut mohrii rudbeckia is a Commodity code that covers preserved or dried botanical materials used in landscaping, environmental restoration, and recreational applications. State and local governments procure under this code primarily through environmental services contracts tied to habitat restoration, invasive species management, and native ecosystem recovery, as well as through arts and recreational supply agreements where dried botanicals support crafts programming and community activities. The issuing bodies soliciting work in this space include county environmental departments, municipal parks and recreation divisions, and consolidated city governments managing multi-departmental procurement across parks, environmental compliance, and community services functions.

Pinellas County, Florida posted an RFP on June 30, 2025 (Environmental Planting, Monitoring, Reporting and Maintenance Services 2025–2030, response due July 29, 2025) that calls for native plant installation, invasive species removal, and site maintenance across wetlands, stormwater ponds, and surface water conveyances—work that may incorporate dried or preserved botanical materials as part of ecosystem restoration and monitoring activities. Columbus Consolidated Government's Finance Department issued Request for Bids No. 26-0014 on February 4, 2026 (response due February 25, 2026) to supply arts, craft, hobby, and recreational supplies to the Department of Parks and Recreation, with an annual purchasing volume of $30,000 to $50,000 across after-school and community recreation programs where dried botanicals could support crafts or educational content. Activity is concentrated in the Southeast, with recent solicitations appearing in Florida and Georgia. The code shows limited recent activity, and the connection between the nominal commodity (dried cut mohrii rudbeckia) and the work actually being solicited diverges significantly—environmental planting contracts focus on living native species installation and maintenance rather than dried botanical materials, and parks procurement targets broad craft supplies rather than a specific dried plant product.
