UNSPSC 10502940: Fresh cut pimelea nivea

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

UNSPSC 10502940 Fresh cut pimelea nivea (Commodity) shows minimal alignment with recent state and local procurement activity. The code describes a specific ornamental plant species, yet the source opportunities span herbicide application services, landscape construction and planting, general nursery stock procurement, and educational supply catalogs — none of which involve pimelea nivea or fresh-cut flowers. The City of Altamonte Springs, Florida issued ITB 26-085-KY for nursery plants and products (annuals, potted plants, plugs, grass seed, trees) as-needed through October 1, 2026; Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners posted ITB2600339 for herbicide spraying and vegetation control services ($544,532.50 estimated value, three-year term, bids due August 3, 2026); and Collier County solicited plants, trees, and shrubs for the Pelican Bay Services Division under ITB 26-8667 with approximately $300,000 historical annual spend. None of these opportunities reference cut flowers or pimelia species. The mismatch between the commodity code's narrow definition and the broader landscape-materials and vegetation-management work actually being procured suggests either a miscoding of opportunities in the source data or minimal actual market activity under this specific UNSPSC designation.

Recent activity appears concentrated in Florida county and city procurement offices seeking broad landscaping materials and invasive-species management rather than fresh-cut specialty flowers. Monroe County issued RFP634 for invasive exotic plant removal at Marathon International Airport (35 acres, up to $300,000, proposals due July 7, 2026); the City of Fairburn, Georgia issued IFB 26-013 for median landscape enhancements including shrubs and groundcover (bids due June 16, 2026, mandatory site visit May 28, 2026); and Region 7 Purchasing Cooperative in Texas solicited educational activities and supplies as a multi-district cooperative vehicle ($40.677 billion estimated two-year expenditure). No opportunities in the source explicitly procure fresh-cut pimelea nivea or similar specialty cut-flower inventory. State and local buyers in the source material are focused on installed landscape plants, nursery stock, and erosion control rather than cut-flower floristry or ornamental stems, which indicates this commodity code sees little relevant recent procurement activity at the state and local level.
