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.

Fragrant and Fun Guacamole Hosta

  • Avacado Green Leaves
  • Leaves have Dark Veins and Edges
  • Fragrant Light Lavender Flowers
  • Attracts Beneficial Pollinators

Guacamole Hosta (Hosta 'Guacamole') is as much fun to add to your garden as it sounds. It's a medium-sized hosta with avocado green, veined foliage with dark green margins. This specimen gives a spicy twist to the hosta variety we know and love.

Mid-summer, Guacamole shoots up gorgeous stalks topped with lavender blooms! The white flowers of this fast-growing hosta bloom and bring with it an abundance of flowery fragrance.

You won't be the only one who wants to stop and smell the...hosta. Butterflies, and sometimes hummingbirds, are also attracted to its blooms. Enjoy their fluttering presence in the later days of summer.

Guacamole grows best in moist, well-drained, highly organic soils with a pH between 5.5 and 7.5. Sandy loam is better than clay because it provides more aeration for the roots.

To make sure that moisture is reaching the roots, make sure to lift up the leaves and water the soil directly underneath. You'll find that sometimes the leaves will shield the roots a little too well.

Plant this vigorous perennial in an area that receives the right amount of light. The leaves need some morning sun to bring the rich golden color out; too much sun will burn the leaves. This hosta mixes well with ferns.

Do you have a spot underneath the family shade tree in the backyard? Sometimes it can be tricky filling in the area under the canopy with all that shade but Guacamole loves it!

Guacamole was named the 2002 Hosta of the Year and is definitely one of the hostas with the most fragrant flowers! It's a garden winner, order yours today and experience its brilliance first hand this season!
