0603.19.01.41 - Statice

This HTS category, 0603.19.01.41, specifically classifies "Statice" that are cut flowers and flower buds, suitable for bouquets or ornamental purposes, and are fresh. This falls under the broader heading of fresh cut flowers and flower buds (0603.19) and the subcategory for "Other" fresh cut flowers, distinguishing it from specifically listed varieties.

While this category shares its immediate parent with other fresh cut flowers like Anthuriums, Alstroemeria, Asters, Bells of Ireland, and Bird of Paradise, the defining characteristic here is the precise identification of Statice. The classification relies on the botanical identification of the Statice plant, recognized for its papery, long-lasting blooms and typically feathery appearance, making it a popular choice for both fresh and dried floral arrangements.

As this is a leaf node, there are no further subdivisions. Classification into this specific code is definitive for fresh cut Statice, assuming it meets all the general requirements of heading 0603, such as being suitable for bouquets or ornamental use. The intent and form of the product are crucial; preserved or processed Statice would likely fall under different HTS codes.
