It *is* tough but when all a nursery can offer is the same pots of annuals you can get at a supermarket, then people have no reason to shop there. The industry will probably end up consisting mainly of the massive 'garden centres' with a few small specialist nurseries for rare/r plants run by gardeners who probably will have to supplement their income from other sources. And even they will have to deal with competition from ebay sellers, including home gardeners.
But that's pretty bad behaviour from the *owner*! Almost actively discouraging visitors a la the Fawlty Towers Plant Nursery LOL What? Did you want to buy a plant? An ACTUAL plant?! ...
