Wim, I could probably send you both as plants, if you didn't mind them from the southern hemisphere. You'd need to keep them cool until your autumn/winter. Well, you would anyway I guess. They're being snowed on today. If interested, PM me your postal address.

They are also almost always offered in the seed exchanges. Hang on until the holidays and you can get seed for very little or no cost...

I suggest a look at the RHS plant finder which is available on the web.
http://www.rhs.org.uk/rhsplantfinder/plantfinder.asp
There are several nurseries listed that sell these plants.
Also as mail-order.
To grow from seed is tricky and slow.
