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.

New Look for a Water-Loving Favorite!

Most wet sites in gardens - places like the edges of ponds (or even in ponds!), drainage areas, low spots in the garden, runoff swales, or the spot by the A/C condensation drip - cause big problems for most perennials. The roots will actually rot in standing water.

Now, if you want to plant a small perennial plant that does well in wet conditions, we have got the perfect plant for you! Variegated Sweet Flag (Acorus gramineus 'Variegatus') will thrive in wet spots that other plants won't - even completely submerged at the edge of a pond, fountain or pool. On top of this they also tolerated a wide variety of light conditions from full sun to light shade.

The grass-like foliage is apple-green striped with yellow which gives it wonderful color, especially in low-light areas. This is a fast-growing semi-evergreen that will quickly give you a lush garden bed with lots of movement. (It grows fast enough that you will want to make sure that you divide it every couple of years to keep it at its prime.)

Variegated Sweet Flag looks great in any garden, whether you use it as a border or a bedding plant, but looks especially good in an Asian, Zen or Contemporary design. These are good container plants, too. They pair well with Coral Bells, Sweetspire and Iris.

Grow Variegated Sweet Flag for its pretty color and soft texture but love it for its tough constitution!
