2. This Invitation to Tender is for a Framework Agreement for the period 1 October

Each of the grasses has a slightly different function in the restoration process. In
addition, Tenderers are requested to recommend other grass species or varieties
that may fit the Authority's requirements. Fine-leaved grasses with low growth forms
are considered to be best suited to Sites.

amenity rye grass. These should have low nutrient requirements, high
stress tolerance and germinate quickly.
