Blueberry bush just arrived and doesn't look too healthy...

I've just received a new blueberry plant. It's buddy blue variety which is a rabbiteye type that I ordered specifically to compliment my pink lemonade. It's just arrived and to my fairly inexperienced eye it looks a bit diseased?? A lot of the leaves have reddish coloured blotches on it as pictured. Does anyone else have this or similar varieties who can advise what the issue (if any) might be? The main thing is I don't want it anywhere near my other blueberry plants if it might infect them! Thanks

    That's what mine looked like when I got it, but it seems to have cleared up since I put it in its container. I clipped off the mottled leaves and new growth coming through is fine.

    I am a complete novice though so I could be totally oblivious to my blueberries being riddled with disease!
