Plant Sentry™

Plant Sentry is designed to protect both consumers and the nursery trade from invasive plant pests and diseases. Sites that display the Plant Sentry protection badge are protected from consumers buying and nurseries shipping material carrying invasive pests and diseases.

This proprietary eCommerce software prevents the shipment of a restricted plant to each state. The Plant Sentry system includes a shipment certification program. The Plant Sentry Compliance Officer works closely with NatureHills.com and each nursery or fulfillment center to ensure only compliant plants are sold to customers.

Shipping

To obtain a more accurate shipment time-frame, simply enter your zip code in the “Find Your Growing Zone” box to the right. Our plants are grown all over the country and lead time on items may be different because of this.

Once an item ships, you will receive shipment notification and tracking numbers, so you can follow along while your plant travels to your doorstep. We use FedEx, UPS, or USPS at our discretion.

 

Due to winter weather we have put a hold on shipping to the areas shown below in grey. You can still order now and we will ship the plant to you during an appropriate time for your zone.

Before you know it, the leaves will turn a brilliant warm red, orange, and yellow, one of the earliest trees to color up once the temps dip!

The red spring flowers bring in the bees and become whimsical red-tinged samaras (whirligigs) that flutter playfully around in the breeze. Cold-hardy throughout USDA planting zones 4 to 8, this narrow-growing columnar Maple is very easy to grow and low-maintenance!

Landscape Application:

If you are looking for a tree to grab the attention of those passing by, this tree will effortlessly get the job done. The Armstrong Gold® Columnar Red Maple makes for a phenomenal accent to any garden setting and any garden size!
