UNSPSC 10501905: Fresh cut ming fern

A type of fern that has been cut to provide contrast to flowers in various floral arrangements

UNSPSC 10501905 Fresh cut ming fern is a Commodity code that nominally names a single ornamental plant product, but recent state and local opportunities show little to no procurement activity specifically for fresh cut ming fern. The recent opportunities posted under this code span landscape enhancement, invasive species removal, educational supplies distribution through a cooperative purchasing vehicle, and IT infrastructure — none of which involve fresh cut ming fern or closely related floral materials. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida issued ITB 26085KY in August 2026 for landscaping plants and products (annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seeds, and trees) on an as-needed basis across four product groups, but ming fern does not appear in the scope. Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners solicited herbicide spraying and planting services under ITB2600339 in July 2026, and Collier County Board of County Commissioners solicited plants, trees, and shrubs under ITB 26-8667 in June 2026 — both asset purchases that diverge from fresh cut ming fern. The mismatch between the code's nominal scope and actual procurement activity suggests this code receives minimal or misdirected tagging in current state and local purchasing systems.

Recent state and local activity across the code's recent-opportunity set shows issuing bodies concentrated in Florida (Altamonte Springs, Hillsborough County, Collier County, and Monroe County) and Georgia (DeKalb County and Fairburn), with one Texas education service center (Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative) issuing a multi-year educational supplies cooperative. The Florida opportunities span landscape maintenance, invasive species control, and community beautification — work that calls for potted plants, trees, shrubs, grass seed, and vegetation-control services rather than fresh cut ming fern. No recent opportunities explicitly solicit or reference fresh cut ming fern or similar cut-foliage products. This code shows little relevant recent activity for business development purposes.
