The power of catnip! Is this abusive? It lured the friendly feral grey kitty into my lap. Grey kitty is fed daily and loves to be petted but not a kitty for holding or for lap time, until I offered catnip. Grey kitty is a treasured resident; they frequently hunt rats and mice!!!
Catnip is available at Wild Dirt Acre. Message me to buy a plant and see what it does to your feline.

Looks like a fig beetle o**y in the Palo Verde.
And I thought there would be fewer fig beetles this year because the chickens, the goose, the crows, the hawks and the nighttime residents ate so many of the grubs. Always surprises.

Dragon fruit flower season is here!!! Such heady scents. These guys will be opening tonight and closing in the morning. 5 more fruits in my future. Unless someone buys the plants. Which is ok too, because there are many formed now and many more to come. ❤️the🌸! ❤️the🍎! (They don’t have emojis for exotics like dragon fruit so an apple should do :)).

WILD DIRT ACRE grows what we sell.
WILD DIRT ACRE grows useful plants. Plants for eating, for healing, for the pollinators and other critters, for the soil and sometimes just for joy.

We have many young natives, herbs and subtropicals in stock and ready to move from our garden to yours. We focus on plants that happily grow in the San Diego area. Our super happy offerings include: Yerba Mansa, 3 native milkweeds for the monarchs, Penstemon spectablis and P. psuedospectablis, baby Dudleyas, Monkey flower ‘Eleanor’, ‘Chiterdly’ Globe Mallow, Ice Cream Banana, other bananas with fruit very similar to Ice Cream but not confirmed, Lemon Verbena, Pakistani mulberries, Elderberry, and more plants as well as so many copper and other planters.

Come see us! We are always open for appointments, but if you can make it June 11, 23 or 24 just drive on in. Please park in the lower lot.

1054 Corvalla Drive, Vista.

Property entrance is about 250’ off of East Vista Way.

There isn’t a street sign for Corvalla Drive. It looks like a driveway between Aloha Animal Hospital and Vista Trading Post. Trust your GPS!!!
First house on the right. Immediately after it turns to dirt. (If you pass Corvalla and end up getting rerouted via Barsby and Hawley Drive it will be the last house on your left).

If you have questions, please call or text to (760) 556-6323.

Garden tours available upon request.

Milkweed. Never enough. But so much joy. This narrowleaf milkweed patch was recently 20 plants strong. The plants are going to need some recovery time from this horde of more than 30 caterpillars.
Relocated a few caterpillars to a narrowleaf milkweed patch 100’ away with no visible caterpillar activity. Hopefully that helps. A bunch of these others are sure to be very HUNGRY in a day or two.

One of my favorite signs of spring. Yerba Mansa. Anemopsis californica.
In the nursery.
In the growing grounds.
Ready to be potted up.
A native for your wet spaces.
A wonderful healing herb. Used for inflammatory conditions and as an anti-viral.
Goes winter dormant and summer dormant when in full sun.

The yard is hyper-alive with dragonflies and swallows. Two beings I only see occasionally. Something tasty is bringing them in. I think it might be a termite hatch. Thankful for my visitors.
