    If it’s any consolation @CostasK, I made the same mistake a few years ago with a speciality Eucalyptus which I bought to hide my neighbours’ home office/shed.

    Have they sold out then? Where there other bulbs there? Their slogan is buy while it lasts. I might’ve just got lucky. If you can it might be worth checking other Lidls.
