    Did you find any? I've just been to Bunnings (MK, formerly Homebase) and their bulbs are reduced to 98p so bought several bags of Tete a Tete, 30 bulbs in each pack. At just over 3p/bulb, that's only 16p for a pot of mini daffs.

      No there were none at the Homebase near me. There are no Bunnings stores in Surrey either.

        @KFF my carnations from Allwoods arrived yesterday, very good healthy plugs and well packed. They sent me an email saying they were on their way, and they came with a nice colour booklet with growing instructions and a very tempting catalogue of other plants which I am struggling to resist:
