Description

Luton Borough Council is seeking suppliers to provide the Council with both summer and autumn Bedding Plants. All Bedding Plants are to be grown at the Supplier's nursery and delivered to locations within the Borough of Luton.

Luton Council uses a wide range of seasonal bedding plants in its public displays, which can change design on an annual basis; therefore, plant requirements will be different each year throughout the contract period. The pricing schedule at appendix 2 identifies the amount and varieties of seasonal bedding plants used previously and is for tender evaluation purposes only.

The council will commission its annual bedding requirements for delivery the1st week of June for Summer Bedding and the 1st week of October for spring bedding.

The Council's Open Spaces team carry out the planting and maintenance.
