best places for mail order cacti in the UK?

[amaccyd]

Hi,

Having recently re-caught the cactus bug I've been looking for where I can buy plants from outside of the poor choice in garden centres.

I've bought some seedlings from members here and they are excellent.

But are there any mail order cactus and succulent growers in the Uk that forum members can recommend?
I've googled quite hard and only found websites that don't look like they're live.

Any help gratefully received

Have you tried Southfield Nurseries?

Looks like they are called cactusland now.

It really depends on what you are after as you could ask on here first
Local branches (plant sales) are always good places to pick up plants grown by members at reasonable prices

Try Ralph Martins web site, plants, prices, and service are first class. Cheers

Fine suggestion Eric. Highly recommended.

Thanks for the suggestions so far. Southfield looks good, hadn't found that one

[Echinocactus123]

yes, the plants are fantastic.

Don't make the mistake i did and visit.... I spent more than I imagined....
Not seen such a good C&S nursery outside of Holland, I must say.

I'd also recommend Plantlife on ebay, aka Stuart on this forum. As well as selling on eBay, he gives talks and attends sales marts etc, and his plants are always tip-top.
