I bought Augustifola and as long as youplant it west facing to get the sun its hardy and does well... Iwas lucky and purchased a 6 pack of good sized plants for £1.99p from Lidl supermarket last year... They look good too.. My locally garden centre wanted £6.99p for one plant and not much larger either....

Always a good idea to improve drainage by digging in some grit before planting
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
I've had excellent experience with Downderry Nursery. They have a very informative website as well.
