trouble with T&M

[MKPoshfan]

sent for a newspaper offer of holly trees for the postage cost - though a rather inflated cost to my mind - supposedly guaranteed pre Christmas delivery orovided you sent the order in by a certain date; nothing arrives and I'd just given up hope when they do surface. Stamped by T&M 'despatch date 22nd January' with a notice on the outside of the packaging telling you what to do for your 'festive decorations' (!!!). Growing instructions advise you to have a male and a female if you want berries - but do they tell you whether what you've got is male/female/one of each? guess. I emailed T&M for help on this as well as complaining about the delivery (I received no acknowledgement of the order or indication as to when I would get the trees) and the reply merely says that they are 'unnamed varieties but both female'. If they're unnamed how do they know both are female??

They're probably just cuttings (clones) from an unknown, un-named female holly they've got in the back yard

You'll know if it's female if it gets berries

I was after some holly trees, how much was p&p? Don't suppose the offer is still on?
