The RHS web site should help you.

Thanks for the reply, I'll take a look.

Any help much appreciated.

Can you tell us where you live because your particular conditions will
affect what people suggest.

I'm near Huntingdon/Kettering/Peterborough/in West Cambridgeshire.

In the meantime, I'm thinking of Skimmia and Sarcococca, azaleas etc. You
could underplant them with spring bulbs, too.

Thanks for the suggestions. I hadn't thought about bulbs. I guess if I plant
them in small clusters and cut crosses in the membrane they would push up
through it ok.
