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.

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.

#ProPlantTips For Care

Full sun-loving Junior Walker™ handles poor, rocky, gravel, or even clay, Perennial Catmint are traditionally also very drought and pollution-resistant plants! Plant without a worry in any type of well-drained soil! Deer and rabbit resistant as well, not much in the way of pests or diseases bother these incredibly versatile and adaptable perennials except wet soil! Water enough to establish new plants, plus supplemental water during extended drought and to protect your investment!

Great for fire-wise landscaping and xeriscaping dry sites in airy texture! Shear after the first wave blooms to encourage a second flush, and again in late fall or early spring to clean up the mounds. These plants are also deer and rabbit-resistant as well!
