    Thanks pansyface. Just checked around and there are one or two firms have them. Will check my local garden centre next week, if they have them it will save on postage.

    I've just ordered from here https://james-mcintyre.co.uk/ They're in Perthshire so things should have been grown reasonably hard. Might suit you too, @Uff

    Thank you for that JennyJ. I've placed an order for the Xenia that pansyface recommended and the Hinnonmaki Yellow that Dove recommended. I'm pleased to have bought them from a firm north of me. Jolly good.

    My order from the firm that you recommended JennyJ has just arrived and I'm pleased with them. Well packed and good looking bushes. Had to dash out to heel one in as I ordered a bare root and a potted one. Nice and safe before the snow arrives tomorrow.

    Mine was delivered to the recipient today as well. I just hope the weather there isn't too awful to plant or heel in at least..
