Hydrangea arborescens Strong Annabelle

Called into my nearest Range (at Aldershot) and indeed they do have Strong Annabelle but they are really dry and dying. In fact most of the plants on display were in very poor condition, I was quite shocked they must have lost several grands worth of stock through neglect. Many plants were on those tall trolleys wrapped in cellophane looking like they had been delivered in a poor state, it made me wonder if they buy in seconds and sell cheaply to unsuspecting punters. This store used to be Focus DIY and I recall their plants were always good value and well looked after, I won't be going back to The Range again.
