    These two Bobo hydrangea have been in the ground for exactly 3 weeks and in that time have shown (almost) *no* growth. They appear to be healthy and look identical in every way but for all intents and purposes there has been very little growth on either plant.

    The longest stem of each is 13" in length.

    Luis et al, would you recommend that I snip 4 or 5 inches off the longest stem to hopefully encourage multiple shoots to come from below?
