Arrived in good condition in spring and has put on a lot of growth since. The stems are quite lax, so nod down with the weight of the flower heads, but this seems normal for young Annabelle hydrangeas.

The plant has survived and has two flowers but is rather spindly. I am hoping it will be stronger next year.

Service was good but i'm sorry to say I have 2 hydrangeas that were poor quality did not last I had been given one as a apology for a mess up of an order
The other I had ordered myself.
I do have hydrangeas growing successfully so it's such a shame because I would have loved the hydrangea Incrediball.

The plant is strong and healthy. Planted it in a semi shady position as seen in my friends garden but disappointingly hasn't flowered yet. Early days. I will give it a couple of seasons, then move it if necessary, in the meantime it fills a space with green foliage.
