Brian,
 
 Yes, I have 99% of the wild collected material from Bleddyn. He has numerous others not yet offered due to a paucity of seed collected and grown on and some from living collections that just don't divide frequently.

 Polygonatum tonkinense is not P. tonkinense! The type is a Disporopsis; D. longifolia. What is being sold under that name is undescribed, but frequently in herbaria as P. punctatum. Just got back from Vietnam looking at that plant in particular.

Have you looked at the Crug Farm list, much of it collected. They are in Wales.

 It has been a while since I last asked if anyone was growing documented origin Polygonatum. So, I ask now if anyone has plants with provenance and they are willing to trade I am more than happy to discuss possible trades. Any Hinkley collections would be superb (except DJHC600, falcatum, and lasianthum which I have). Chris Chadwell collections from the previous decade, Jurasek, etc.
