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.

This stunning small tree will delight your guests every summer when it blooms. Pale white fragrant blossoms grow atop the branches, creating showy spires that simply cover the Crème de la Crème™ White Chaste Tree (Vitex castus-agnus 'Crème de la Crème')!
This unusual accent tree develops an attractive branching structure and looks good from all angles! In full bloom during the summer and fall months, Crème de la Crème will look all the world like a floral firecracker with lovely blooms rocketing out all around the graceful branches! Plus the butterflies, bees, and hummingbirds will fly around like sparks!
Vitex is a beloved tree with a long history and medicinal benefits. With its silvery gray foliage and beautiful vase-shaped form, you'll love it all growing season long. Hardy throughout USDA planting zones 6 to 10, these are heat-resistant plants that can remain evergreen in frost-free growing zones but can be deciduous or even act as perennials in cold winters.
Landscape Application:
Plant Crème de la Crème near your seating areas for a lovely conversation starter that perfumes the air with its flowers and aromatic foliage. This is the best of both worlds, as it's elegant enough to be considered sophisticated, but showy enough to command attention. It would work beautifully well in a manicured landscape, but can also hold its own in a rustic, informally wild ecosystem.
This showy white flowered variety brightens the landscape and creates a layered look when planted among other Chaste trees, white flowering shrubs, and perennials, and brightens dark evergreen hedges. Fair warning, you'll be tempted to start a Chaste Tree collection!
You'll add stunning, sophisticated depth to your garden design by using this creamy white flowering shrub to lighten a dark home's siding and enliven a weary mixed shrub hedge, bringing privacy and blooms to windbreaks and shelterbelts around your property.
As a singular specimen, the Crème de la Crème™ White Chaste Tree is a prominent lawn specimen, growing about 15 feet in height and 15 - 20 feet wide, creating an umbrella-shaped canopy or multi-stemmed small tree depending on how you train or prune your plant. Shade a reading chair or hammock in the backyard or accent your patio!
