I was at Myddleton and was told about a green bumble, believe you and me I was one of the first at the stand and yet a dealer gabbed the 2 remaining plants, another was given by the owner of the stall to a favoured customer (which I have no problem with at all) but for us mere mortals can anyone advise on how we even stand a chance?

Ask Glen Chantry for their dormant bulb list and apply early for the ones you want.  Wol & Sue deal with orders as they are received.

... according to an article by Graham Rice, T & M still have only one bulb. 
Thompson and Morgan must be doing something wrong if they only have one after all this time ! 

They did something very wrong, they've lost it completely.   ::)
