    I have bought some Rugosa roses and a Daubenton's kale plant from Ebay this year. Both came quickly, and were well packaged, good quality plants. A lot of decent nurseries have a shopfront on Ebay, and it's fantastic just to browse and get ideas - earlier in the year I was just searching "plug plants" and saw lots of stuff that was new to me.

      I am now going to say that i dont recommend dobies. They use yodel for deliveries. The driver came and made the most gentlest knock at my front door (despite there being a doorbell) and then ran off in less than 5 seconds. Im not even sure i would call it a knock. He left the plant horizontally on my front doorstep. I did not specify this was a safe place to leave a package and the box says live plant so im not sure why he thought leaving it horizontally was a good idea
