Please don’t panic if a plant looks different to the image on the Website. It is likely to be in perfect condition for the time of year and just ‘resting’ before it bursts into action in the coming season.
Plants do look very different throughout the year. Particularly in winter, many shrubs will look rather bare and stick-like and perennial plants may not even be showing through the soil.
