I know it is a long shot but have you tried freecycle?  I give away my extras on there and you might be lucky if you post a wanted ad.

Elcie's idea is sound  :)

Could also check out loacl g/centres as they should still have plants, usually fair sized too. I bought a couple of extras at yew Tree Garden Centre for £1.49 each and they are in flower now  :D :D-- variety Mohawk

Also try local car boot sales too - they are often heaving with plant people this time of year. good luck with your growing

freecycle is fab - an allotment holders best friend!

It's a web community where people post stuff they are giving away, and stuff they want - everything is free and receiver must collect (though some posters are flexible).

They go by area, so I use the glasgow one. Do a wee google search, even if you don't get what you're looking for right now - you are sure to find something else.
