Portulaca Moss Rose Double Blend
Portulaca grandiflora

Annual. Low-growing plants create a carpet of brilliantly colored, 1" - 2" rose-like, double flowers that bloom on sunny days throughout the heat of summer. Very drought tolerant, moss roses need only occasional watering. Wonderful for dry banks and areas with reflected heat such as parking strips or along concrete sidewalks. Self-sows readily!

Full sun. Blooms early summer to fall.

Special germination instructions: Requires light to germinate - press seed into soil surface - do not cover; keep moist.
