National Plant Specification now freely available online
23rd August 2007
The National Plant Specification is an important vehicle to aid the specification and delivery of reliable plant material throughout the landscape industry.
The updated National Plant Specification takes the guesswork out of plant procurement by providing a comprehensive and accurate 'bible' for the specification of plants and ensuring an effective method of producing rigorously specified plant schedules. By stipulating supply under the NPS, specifiers can be sure that plants are supplied to their exact specification and that different nurseries will provide like-for-like quotations.
The NPS covers all the most commonly specified plant groups and defines the criteria used in the specification of plants within each.
Helios has been developed by the Landscape Institute and the Horticultural Trades Association in association with CS Design Software.
NPS is now available online.
