Understanding Plant Options
Nature Hills offers plants in two main formats:
- Container Plants: Grown in pots with soil, sized by container volume and plant age
- Bare Root Plants: Dormant plants without soil, sized by height measurements
Container Plant Sizes
Container sizes indicate plant age and growing capacity rather than liquid volume equivalents. Our containers follow industry-standard nursery "trade gallon" specifications, which differ from standard liquid gallon measurements.

- Container size helps indicate plant maturity and establishment level
- Larger containers generally mean more established root systems and faster landscape establishment

Fragrant gift-giving and indoor winter decor, the Paperwhites Gift Bag (Narcissus papyraceus) blooms in the early winter and acts as the perfect holiday decoration to chase away the dreary winter! These graceful miniature, creamy white Daffodil-like flower clusters aren't the prima donnas you'd expect and are easy to grow as winter-forced spring blooms!
Great as a solo forced bulb in a vase, or in groupings as an amazing centerpiece! You’ll perfume the whole room! Arriving in a gift bag that makes gift-giving easy, once planted, you’ll see upright slender foliage and flower buds in just a few weeks, you'll not only have some of the prettiest flowers you can grow indoors but the unforgettable scent will fill your rooms for weeks!
Paperwhites can grow outdoors in USDA growing zones 8-10, and the green foliage grows 12-18 inches in height, forming polite bunches. Paperwhites are fall-planted bulbs that flower in the late winter or spring! The bright white color will add fragrance and cheer to the dull winter and complete any home decor. You will have the prettiest flower for the holidays!
Planting and Application:
Plant the Paperwhites Gift Bag indoors and force your bulbs for winter fragrance and color in a bright, indirect sunlit location. Display in a tall cloche or grouped in a low urn of moss, or in a special vase made for forcing winter bulbs. They look lovely dressed down or dressed up in a sleek glass minimalist vase.
Paperwhites are lovely on their own in groupings and bunches, both in the ground (in warm climates) and in containers outdoors (in cooler climates), and in small-space container gardens in the sun. Snip a few stems for your indoor vases and bouquets!

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Amaryllis are perennial bulbs that require full sun outdoors, or bright indirect sunlight indoors. Plant in consistent moderately moist well-drained soil to do their best, as long as it is not soggy. Add bulb fertilizer to each hole for best results and provide moderate moisture during drought. Deadhead after flowers fade but keep the leaves so they can make food for the bulb and next year's flowers! Its blooms endure through spring showers and days of sunshine.
- Full Sun & Partial Shade Outdoors, Bright Indirect Indoors
- Rich Organic Well-Drained Soil
- Deadhead After Bloom & Clean Mound When Leaves Yellow
- Moderate Moisture
- Dislikes Soggy Soil
