Chilli plants in the UK

Hey all, first of all I apologize in advance if this has been posted elsewhere and I also appreciate the list of seed companies complied. However I'm looking for a reputable place to order chilli plants from, in the UK.

Thanks for any suggestions :)

Don't now what they will have left but matt simpson is a first class guy who does love his chillies
 
Gosh there are quite a few, paulmtonkin a member here knows some of the best UK suppliers PM him.
 
I've had a look at simpson's seeds and Think I'm about to order!
However any other ideas are more than welcome.
Thanks :)
 
I bought some seeds from these suppliers to try out this season. They all germinated really well, but as far as quality time will only tell.

They may have some plants to sell.

Good luck!!
 
I think there's a thread in these UK-based forums that discuss live plant sellers, saw it about a month ago (?): http://www.chillisgalore.co.uk/phpBB3/index.php
 
I'll take a look, although now I've got this HPS light I'm not too bothered about starting seedlings off so late.

Thanks though!
 
I ordered a few varieties of seed from Nicky's Nursery last season:

Don't know if they have a good rep or not, but from my own experience, I was happy with their seed. Good germination rates and everything grew true... not too shabby at all!

EDIT:

Whoops, my bad! Just realized you were looking for plants, not seeds!

Maybe a good guy and good seeds but my problem is with him calling all C. chinenses habaneros. Habaneros are a very specific type of C. chinense and seed sellers should know this basic info.
Its actually the first time I've seen fatalii listed as a habanero :( He even spells fatalii wrong(Fatali), and theres lots of other errors Not exactly the most professional in my opinion

All habaneros are C. chinense
Not all C. chinenses are habaneros
