I must admit we now use a local "proper" old nursery for a number of plants.
Not plug plants but they grow all sorts of veg from seed and if maybe you
only want a few of one variety, like summer cabbage for example, they grow a
number of varieties of most things. Also very useful if you have a
germination disaster as we did with one of the Brussels Sprout varieties
last year.

It's cabbages I'm having germination problems with this year.
And my tray of calabrese has gone and died whilst I was away. :'(
