What is being bought

Published requirement description

Rhododendron control is required over the Southern mosses with the density and size of rhododendron varying considerably from very small plants to very large bushes above head height. Because of this, we have broken these areas down as shown on the attached map. These areas will require different methods of treatment depending on the size of the rhododendron and should be priced accordingly. Please see RFQ for full details.
