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.

#ProPlantTips For Care

Full sun Russian Sage tolerates harsh dry conditions with ease! These herbaceous perennials require regular access to water while young plants are establishing, but afterward, they have moderate to low moisture needs. All types of well-drained soil work great for these hardy plants! Drought-tolerant once established, Russian Sage thrives in rocky, sandy, poor soil and urban conditions no problem! Cut all stems down to a few inches each year in late winter or early spring to allow all new growth to form from the base.
