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.

Delivery and Shipping

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 your order is placed, you will also receive the specific shipment time-frame information as part of your order confirmation. 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.

*If you have found your zone already, it will be highlighted in the table below.

Knock your socks off flavor, the unique Comet Hops Vine (Humulus lupulus 'Comet') was bred to address the need for higher alpha hops. Comets' flavor profile rests heavily on strong accent notes of grapefruit for a full-bodied flavor. It features solid bitter capabilities, but recently there has been a surge in its use as a dry Hop in ales and IPAs!

The lovely chartreuse green foliage and lime green layered bracts of Comet Hops Vine add color, height, and interest to gardens with carefree ease. Male and female plants are separate and will need to be planted in groups to ensure at least one of each and increase pollination. Provide a sturdy structure for them to climb and assist with climbing with soft ties or places to entwine on and gain height.

Hops Vines are technically Bines because they do not grab onto anything with suckers, choosing instead to climb by binding themselves instead of sticking, entwining themselves to grow upwards. Low-maintenance and hardy throughout USDA growing zones 4-8, Comet is a deciduous climbing plant that grows 12-18 feet tall and 4-8 feet wide at maturity.

Planting and Application:

Highly ornamental climbing on trellises, up a chimney, stair railing, or over a balcony for shade. Add shade to pergolas and arbors, privacy to lattice and fencing or just as a specimen climbing up an obelisk in the garden for a conversation piece!

Train onto an arbor or support to easily grow and harvest the Hops flowers for beer making or tea, and any number of other medicinal uses. Add a row on a fence to block an unsightly view or as screening without worry that deer may come munching.

Best in groupings and en masse for pollination purposes since the plants are either male or female. Planting in multiples will ensure pollination and higher yields.

  • Chartreuse Green Leaves & Lighter Green Bracts/Blooms
  • Mid-Season Variety (August/September)
  • High Alpha Acids & Strong Flavor Profile
  • Flavorful Beer & Tea
  • Shade, Privacy & Unique Climbing Accent

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Hops Bines flower/fruit best in a full sun location in well-drained soil. Provide moderate, consistent moisture and a mulched bed in hot/dry climates. Harvest mid-August to mid-September and afterward, prune the plant to the ground in fall. Next spring, all new sprouts develop from the roots (rhizomes) each year! Male and female plants need to be planted in groupings to ensure pollination.

  • Full Sun
  • Moderate Moisture
  • Any Enriched Well-Drained Soil
  • Prune To Ground After Harvest
  • Cold Hardy!

Beautiful, green and versatile, the cold-hardy Comet Hops Vine will add some impressive flavor to your brewing this year but only if your order yours today at NatureHills.com!
