    I'll have a look in my local GC. They sell it in summer, hopefully fingers crossed. Not holding my breath though.

    Ive seen B&Q stuff, often its yellow :(

    You'd be better finding a local turf grower and collecting enough rolls from them - cheaper and fresher. In a garden where I work, we do any returfing necessary during the winter, when the garden is not open to the public. Just pick a week when it's not going to be freezing.
