0603.19.01.40 - Snapdragons

This HTS classification covers fresh snapdragons intended for use as cut flowers or flower buds suitable for bouquets or ornamental purposes. Snapdragons (Antirrhinum majus) are characterized by their distinctive, upright flower spikes with numerous colorful, bilabiate blossoms. The classification applies to these flowers in their natural, fresh state, prior to any processing such as drying, dyeing, or impregnation.

The "Other" designation within this sub-heading signifies that snapdragons are distinct from other specified cut flowers listed at this level, such as anthuriums, alstroemeria, asters, bells of Ireland, and bird of paradise. While all these are fresh cut flowers for ornamental purposes, snapdragons are specifically identified by their unique botanical characteristics and common horticultural name, differentiating them from the other named varieties. This ensures that shipments solely containing snapdragons are correctly categorized.

As this node is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification under 0603.19.01.40 is definitive for fresh snapdragons meeting the criteria of cut flowers suitable for bouquets or ornamental use. The primary distinguishing factor at this level is the botanical identification of the flower itself.
