How to buy seedlings in new landscaping industry

Buying seedlings in the newly entered landscaping industry should be selected from the following aspects:

1. All kinds of seedlings

In the process of purchasing seedlings, it is necessary to make clear the varieties of seedlings, and the suppliers of seedlings should make quotations according to the prices of the corresponding kinds, so as to provide a basis for the quotation process of seedlings.

There are many kinds of seedlings suitable for urban greening in China. Usually, the varieties of seedlings belong to the category of "species", and there are "subspecies", "varieties" and "varieties" below. If these differences are ignored and the varieties are not clear, seedling suppliers will take advantage of this loophole, which will lead to the failure of conventional landscape effect in seedling procurement.

2. specifications of seedlings

Due to the lack of unified quality standards for landscaping seedlings in China, the standardization of seedling production is low. The seedlings produced are often damaged individually, and batches of seedlings are uneven, such as bent trunk, scattered branches, different DBH, too small or too large specifications, which can not meet the requirements of landscaping [2]. Seedling size is one of the most direct factors affecting the quotation in the process of seedling procurement. In the purchase list, it must be clear and accurate, strive to quantify, and avoid vague standards.

3. Seedling suppliers

In general, the basic idea of "cost price+freight+labor+taxes and fees+maintenance cost+reasonable profit" is adopted to make inquiry for seedling purchase.

Nursery stock purchase in the usual work, we should always know the quotations of some conventional trees and rare trees. At the same time, focus on understanding the overall price changes of regional trees, especially the information of local seedlings. Combined with the local culture and living customs in the area where some greening projects are located, we should also understand some specific trees.

According to the types and specifications of seedlings needed for greening projects, we make inquiries from many suppliers to purchase seedlings. Based on the quotations of various seedling suppliers, it may appear that supplier A has an advantage over supplier B, and supplier B has an advantage over supplier A but has an advantage over supplier B. According to the market situation, the seedling supplier with a large number of seedlings and an advantage in price is selected, and a reasonable evaluation is made by analyzing and comparing the quotations of seedling suppliers, and then the supplier with a reasonable quotation is adopted.
