    :( I too am bitterly dissapointed with T&M & haven't ordered from them for a couple of years now.. Never ordered from Jungle.. Very disappointing plants & seeds as Strongy says. I use Crocus & Chiltern for plants & seeds & have not had any problems with them, but these days on the whole I would rather go to a GC & pick my own plants.
    We are quite well blessed with some very good ones around this area & best of all we have an excellent Succulent & Tropicals Gc opened up a couple of years ago which goes from strength to strength..

    I've just received the "Ursula's Red" ferns I ordered back in February from T&M, although to be fair they said they'd be dispatched in March. I can't see the state of them until I've unpacked them (don't want to do so as I have to get them home on the train first!). No free hardy orchids they promised with every order yet though...

    Chiltern came recommended to me as a great way of acquiring unusual plants, and today I also received the pack of five cycad seeds my husband bought me to say sorry for getting outrageously drunk, not telling me where he was and rolling in at 4am on a Friday morning... The catalogue is great, and the top of a very slippery slope for anyone with decent growing space and a passion for weird plants!
