Default Lantana camara "Miss Huff" in the UK?

Hi All,

First post, so a quick introduction:

4 years ago I started renting a house in St. Albans (Herts) where the garden was just a lawn with borders. Since then I've added a 6' by 4' pond with a pumped stream and alpine rockery. I filled the borders with buddleias and ceanothus and last year planted sweet williams, nasturtiums, asters, lupins and verbenas for extra colour.

A year ago I visited a cacti grower and was bitten by the cactus bug. Since then I can't visit a garden centre without coming back with one (or several) and my window sills are overflowing with them (hence the username).

Now to the question:

Has anyone ever heard of a supplier of Lantana camara "Miss Huff" in the UK? Its a hardy lantana that can survive our winters. It has pink/yellow/orange/red flowers and is an excellent butterfly attractor.

I've searched for one for several months now and while they are common in the USA I've never seen anyone selling one over here (although many non-hardy varieties are available).

If anyone knows of a UK supplier or would be willing to send me a cutting then I'd be very grateful.

I would happily trade you a cactus or offer some free computing/website advice (my profession) in return.

Best Regards,

Chris
