I wanted a few more currant bushes and happened to find J Parkers website with a deal of 3 each white red back total (if I remember) 9 for £17 plus post.. came to less than £21 and includes a free rhodadendron.
Order arrived to day.. bare rooted but packed well and the shrubs are a good 18"+ long above the root-line...In other words very good sized. Most were still dormant but a couple did have some shoots. Due to the cold snap I decided to pot them all up in big pots and keep them in the greenhouse to kick them off (mid wales) and probably keep them potted and pandered to until they have really rooted..or perhaps even until the autumn.
I'd expect a small amount of fruit this year from specimens that look like this..and get them kicking off well for next year
