Proven Winners®

When you see that distinctive white pot with the green tag, you know you're getting a plant that's been put through its paces. Proven Winners® has become the most trusted name in the nursery industry by doing one thing exceptionally well: they only release plants that actually perform.

Every Proven Winners® variety goes through years of rigorous trialing at test sites across North America before earning that branded tag. The breeding team evaluates thousands of plants annually, selecting only those that demonstrate superior flowering, disease resistance, and garden-worthy habits. The rejects? They never make it to market. What reaches your garden has already proven itself in conditions similar to yours.

What Sets Proven Winners® Apart

The lineup spans virtually every category of ornamental plant. Their ColorChoice® shrubs include garden favorites like Limelight hydrangeas, Lo & Behold® buddleias, and Wine & Roses® weigelas. The perennial collection features reblooming daylilies, long-flowering salvias, and tough-as-nails sedums. And their annual program delivers the Supertunias®, Diamond Frost® euphorbias, and Superbennas® that have revolutionized container gardening.

What you won't find are finicky plants that look great at the garden center but struggle in real-world conditions. Proven Winners® selects for gardener success, not just greenhouse appearance.

Growing Confidence

Each plant comes with detailed growing information and the backing of decades of horticultural expertise. Whether you're a beginning gardener building your first landscape or a seasoned plantsperson looking for something new, Proven Winners® takes the guesswork out of plant selection.

Browse our collection of Proven Winners® shrubs, perennials, and more. These are the plants that earned their spot in your garden.

FAQ's for Buying Proven Winners® Online

What makes Proven Winners® plants different from other brands?
Proven Winners® tests thousands of plants each year and only releases varieties that demonstrate superior performance in real garden conditions. Their multi-year trialing process evaluates disease resistance, flowering power, and overall habit before any plant earns the Proven Winners® name.

Are Proven Winners® plants more expensive?

Do Proven Winners® plants come with a guarantee?
Nature Hills backs all plants with our standard guarantee. Proven Winners® provides extensive growing information for each variety to help ensure success. Following the specific light, water, and zone recommendations gives your plants the best chance to thrive.

What are the most popular Proven Winners® plants?
