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.

Falling in love with gorgeous new plants from Nature Hills? Be sure to add a bag of Nature Hills Root Booster for each plant to give their root systems a tremendous kick-start.

Root Booster will help grow roots faster, for bigger and healthier trees, fruiting plants, shrubs, and perennials of all types. It gives your plants what they crave!

There is no better way to support the growth of foliage, flowers, and fruit than by adding Nature Hills Root Booster. This formula is recommended and used by commercial greenhouse growers, the bacillus 4 blend is far superior. Why it is superior to just a mycorrhizal fungi blend? Root Booster stimulates roots at least as well as the fungi, but it also generates nitrogen and fights unwanted fungi.

Use at planting time for both bare root and potted plants. You can even buy additional bags to support the needs of established plants long after they've been planted.

While plants take care of themselves above ground, Root Booster's special ingredients support mycorrhizal fungi and will protect the roots below ground.

Remember that healthy plants and stress-free can better resist pest and disease issues! For best results, order a pack for each plant. It will help your new plants become established faster, and support the feeder roots to break down nutrients and take up water faster too!

How to Use Nature Hills Root Booster to Improve New and Established Plant Performance

  • Use at least 2 ounces per gallon size container or 2 ounces per foot of height.
  • For bare root plants, wet roots then apply a coating of Root Booster and plant.
  • For potted plants, place the plant in a dug hole.
  • Root Booster should be added to the soil that comes in contact with the root ball of your new plant. Mix Root Booster to the backfill soil used in the top 8 inches of the planting hole.
  • To use Root Booster on established plants, simply sprinkle the contents of the packet all around the soil surface. "Scratch it" into the soil using a garden fork.
  • Water it in well.

How Nature Hills Root Booster Works

Root Booster gives plants an important fungal partner that supports mycorrhizae. It might sound strange, but mycorrhizae actually play an important role in plant nutrition, soil biology, and soil chemistry!

There is an age-old symbiotic relationship between mycorrhizal fungi and plants. Plants rely on support from these nutrients and moisture. Without it, they can struggle to survive!

Nature Hills Root Booster is an easy mycorrhizal inoculant. It allows beneficial fungus to support the needs of your new and existing plants.

In just a short time, helpful fungal hyphae (which are microscopic filaments) will colonize the soil surrounding the root system. These tiny hyphae help your pretty host plant's root cells to get access to water and micronutrients from the soil.

Adding Root Booster decreases the risk of transplant shock. At the same time, it increases the absorption of water and nutrients.

Healthy plants are better able to ward off disease and pests. Root Booster works to naturally increase resistance.

Best of all, mycorrhizal symbiosis lasts for many years! When you introduce it to a plant, it will colonize the roots. It stays with the plant as it grows and matures.

Root Booster will not only help plants become established quicker, but it also works to improve your soil. Once this clean, powerful approach is in place, you will find the soil will improve year after year, and not be depleted.

Give your new plants what they need. Nature Hills Root Booster is an outstanding mix of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizas and other critical nutrients to support plant root growth. Add to your order today!
