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.

Planting and Application:
Use these very low-growing perennial bulbs as edging or in containers and planters to create an early-season display anywhere sunny! Let meander throughout beds and borders, and among larger perennials or shrubs, without worrying the bulbs might interfere with larger roots or vice versa! Pollinator beds and rock gardens, everything looks better with these little darling bulbs!
Technically known as corms, Crocus bulbs should be planted in early fall before the ground freezes, depending on your growing zone and climate. Plant in a sunny site near a wall or foundation for earlier blooms, or in a shadier location for later emerging bulbs.

- Three Crocus Varieties in One Package
- Spiky Green Grassy Foliage Clumps

#ProPlantTips for Care:
Crocus corms do best in full sun or partial shade, gardeners in growing zones 3 to 8 can leave Crocus bulbs in the ground, or even in a large planter year-round! Crocus bulbs require at least six to eight weeks of what's known as 'chill hours' before they will sprout. Best in well-drained soil with moderate fertility and mulch.
- Full Sun to Part Shade
- Moderately Moist Enriched Well-Drained Soil
- Cannot Tolerate Soggy Conditions
- Cold-Hardy Perennial Corm
- Plant 2-6 Inches Apart, Pointed End Up
