Another that is particularly flavorful, though not necessarily high yielding, is halley's purple comet.
Probably the minimum of Adoration you could buy would be 250 seeds, unless you found a supplier in Europe. Evergro used to have a minimum of 500 seeds, but because of their new contract with Enza Zaden, this minimum has been brought up to 1000 seeds. I would try Paramount Seeds. I certainly wouldn't discount Mountain Magic - the only problem for me was lack of consistency in fruit size, but flavor was excellent - just below that of Adoration.
