You can get them very cheap from Buckingham Nurseries:

They do mail order too (but I recommend a visit - if your bank balance will survive the experience!)

Alternatively, I'd be happy to give you some cuttings from mine - though they didn't berry-up this year.

I will pick some up and take my chances with the credit card :-)

Any idea of yeild??

I'm waiting for some to plant this year cambourne, we can compare notes! :)

i am going to see if a friend of mine wants to share the postage as its more than the order :-)

Beeches nursery in Ashdon (other side of Cambridge from you) had some in a while back. Might be worth checking out if you're ever round this way?

Quite fancy growing them myself, but I think they don't like chalk.

good tip :-) just sent them an email

I have made a little area that i can plant them in but now have to wait till i put my fruit cage into place.

will let you know what happens
