You can buy it right now and yes it's the same plant. It's extremely vigorous and fun to have!

Thanks! A bit too much cider while planting my broadbeans and onions today but I'll head up to Woodies tomorrow. Thanks again!

The one they show is Alba, but the description refers to the common blue one. The blue one is very very vigorous, you need quite a big space for it. Alba is more delicate but also more likely to be killed by very hard frost.
