Proposals should demonstrate eco-conscious maintenance practices, use of peat-free compost and compostable materials where possible, high-quality plants and materials suitable for public display, and multi-sensory designs that evolve through the seasons; submissions will be scored on price, quality, design, environment, experience, maintenance, communication, safety, timeline and clarity. Deadline for submissions is midnight on Sunday 16th November 2025, internal review is the week commencing 17th November 2025, final decision is listed as Wednesday 21st January 2025, project start date is 01 April 2026 and completion date is 31 March 2028; contract value is negotiable.
