UNSPSC 10441518: Dried cut single bloom red carnation

Dried cut bloom of the red variety of single bloom carnations

UNSPSC 10441518 Dried cut single bloom red carnation is a Commodity code that, based on recent state and local procurement activity, shows minimal direct purchasing aligned with its nominal scope. The single recent opportunity posted under this code—Fulton County, Georgia's ITB 26ITB1652296A-KM for landscape maintenance and operational services at the South Fulton Maintenance and Operational Demonstration Garden—concerns quarterly maintenance of pollinator and rain gardens, including selective pruning, mulching, pressure washing, irrigation system upkeep, integrated pest management, and installation of interpretive signage and wildlife structures. This work bears no substantive connection to procurement of dried carnation flowers. The mismatch suggests that either the code assignment is erroneous or the code carries limited genuine activity in state and local purchasing.

Fulton County, Georgia issued the landscape maintenance ITB with a response date of November 30, 2026, and requires a Georgia-licensed Landscape Architect on the contractor's staff plus demonstration of water-efficient landscaping and wildlife habitat knowledge. The scope covers the 0.95-acre demonstration garden with contract term from Notice to Proceed through December 31, 2027, with two optional one-year renewals. Insurance requirements include $1 million minimum Commercial General Liability per occurrence and Professional E&O Liability. The county notes availability of certified MBE and FBE firms at 34.71% and 11.45% respectively for this construction work category. The absence of additional recent opportunities under this Commodity code in state and local procurement channels indicates that dried cut carnation flowers do not represent a material purchasing category across surveyed jurisdictions.
