Waterwise Botanicals Much more than a nursery, Waterwise Botanicals is 20+ acres of plants, gardens, ponds and pathways to explore!

Visit our website at https://www.waterwisebotanicals.com Waterwise Botanicals (formerly Daylily Hill) is a new name for us, but not a new endeavor! For many years it’s been the vision of the founders of Waterwise Botanicals to evolve and innovate while keeping a pulse on the needs of our rapidly changing landscape paradigm in order to bring excitement to the public, and industry, with a unique and

beautiful plant palette. We tend to sell water-wise and drought-resistant plants, though we greatly enjoy a great variety of plants! Our location is hidden in the rolling hills of north San Diego County. We hope you will find your visit an enjoyable “escape to the country” with beautiful vistas and the perfect place to explore ideas, as you stroll through countless varieties of roses, the exotic world of succulents and cacti, eye-popping perennials, graceful ornamental grasses, and unusual shrubs and trees. We are one of the largest suppliers of plants like landscape roses, cacti, and succulents in Southern California and delight in bringing you new and introduced varieties of plant materials as well. Many of our visitors enjoy seeing the Golden Barrels, and combination of succulent colors, like pieces of a quilt on our hillside.

Right now in bloom 🌸🌵

Trichocereus brevispinulosus showing off, and honestly… it doesn’t do this quietly.

The plant itself stays pretty understated most of the time—tight ribs, short spines, nothing flashy. And then the flowers open and it’s like a switch flips. Big, bold blooms that don’t match the “shy cactus” energy at all.

If you’re here at the nursery today, this is definitely one to stop and see in person. These flowers don’t hang around long, so it’s a bit of a blink-and-you-miss-it moment.

Rare cactus. Rare bloom. Right now 🌵

RUN... DON'T WALK TO WATERWISE BOTANICALS! 🏃‍♀️

Alluaudia procera looking absolutely stunning at sunset in our Southwest garden! 🌅

There’s something magical about the way the evening light hits this towering Madagascar beauty!

Did you catch the newsletter we sent out yesterday?
It was a fun one! We shared a little glimpse into the jungles of Madagascar and the playful lemurs that call these incredible plants home. 🙉

If you’ve never seen an Alluaudia procera in person, be sure to wander through our Southweat garden next time you visit. This plant reaches 16ft tall and is a staple specimen in our nursery!
