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.

The Shoal Creek Chaste Tree (Vitex agnus-castus 'Shoal Creek') is a new and improved cultivar of the graceful old Southern classic! The Chaste is one of the few trees that bloom all summer and features vigorous growth!

Smothered in airy wands of waving, violet-blue flowers, Shoal Creek takes it up a notch, with long-lasting, fragrant flowers than any other Chaste before it! Pollinators will be grateful for the summer-long bounty!

Even when not in bloom, Chaste are spotlight-worthy specimens or small patio trees, with multiple trunks and an airy, vase-shaped canopy.

Featuring wonderfully aromatic green foliage with a gray-green to silver-blue cast. Emerging in early spring, you’ll be thrilled by the fast growth rate. In the summer, you will be awed by the impressive violet-blue spikes that bloom like candlesticks right up until autumn!

It is a favorite among Southern gardeners! Heat and humidity tolerant, plus it is fast-growing for the impatient! These are also deer-resistant and vigorous trees!

How to Use Shoal Creek Chaste Tree In The Landscape

Savvy gardeners plant this beauty as anchors for the Perennial border or Pollinator gardens, casting light shade over summer flowers. Light and airy, these branches won’t block your view, but provide graceful screening from the street or from the neighbors!

Create a splendid accent grouping in multiples of 3 or 5, or use several in a row as a hedge along a driveway or property line. The delicate air adds grace while softening the corners of your home’s foundation.

Keep the lower limbs as a privacy shrub, or remove the lower branches to reveal the multiple trunks, and use Shoal Creek as a small specimen tree! Plant one as a focal point in the front yard or to highlight your entry steps!

Perfect for incorporating this delicate tree into your mixed-shrub borders, anchoring Cottage gardens, or shading your patio and seating areas! Plant smaller trees into large planters around your patio and terrace, or prune smaller yet for porch pots!

#ProPlantTips For Care

No need for any special knowledge or skill to grow this tree. It's a very easy-to-grow plant. It is drought-tolerant and disease-resistant.

Loving full sun, Shoal Creek blooms best in 6 hours plus of direct sunlight each day. Shrugging off humidity, these thrive in growing zones 6-9. In colder zone 6 it sometimes is grown as a perennial where it dies to the ground each winter, then new shoots develop and flower each year.

Water regularly to establish young plants and do not let them dry out between waterings. Afterward, you should only need to water during extended dry periods.

Plant in any type of well-drained soil, while not particular, provide a rich, organic environment. Mulch the root system well to insulate the roots and keep them cool, while also regulating moisture levels in the soil.

Prune in early spring before flowers emerge so you don’t miss a single moment of these amazing blooms!

You will love the perks provided by this lovely little tree! Don't let another summer go by without adding the beauty of Shoal Creek Chaste Tree to your landscape! Order today at NatureHills.com!

Single Stem, Multi Stem, Shrub Form, Oh My!

Before you buy, make sure you know what you’re getting! Single-stem, multi-stem, and shrub forms are different so read a bit about which we’re currently offering below.

Single Stem: 

These are plants that have one stem coming from the ground. Plants can also be considered single stems when lower branches are removed to raise the height of the branching. Sometimes, you will hear a single stem referred to as Tree Form.

Multi Stem:

These are plants with 2 or more stems planted together in the ground in close proximity to form a clump. There are times when multiple stems are formed by a tree that branches at the soil line with more than one main stem. 

Shrub Form:

These are bushy plants with many stems and branches close to the ground. They are referred to as shrubs or bushes and are often shorter than their tree forms.
