  • Species and varieties: Mossrose purslane (Portulaca grandiflora) is a flowering plant in the Portulacaceae family. It is known for its vibrant, rose-like flowers and succulent foliage. There are several varieties of mossrose purslane, including single-flowered and double-flowered types, with colors ranging from pink, red, yellow, orange, and white.
  • Hybrid or heirloom: Mossrose purslane seeds are available in both hybrid and heirloom varieties. Heirloom varieties are open-pollinated and have been passed down through generations, while hybrid varieties are bred for specific traits such as improved flower size, color, and disease resistance.
  • Pruning and training: Mossrose purslane requires minimal pruning and training. Deadheading spent flowers can encourage continuous blooming throughout the growing season. The plant has a low, spreading growth habit and does not require staking or support.
  • Fertilization needs: Mossrose purslane has low fertilization needs. A light application of a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at the time of planting can promote healthy growth and flowering. Over-fertilization should be avoided, as it can lead to excessive foliage growth at the expense of flowers.
  • Hardiness zones: Mossrose purslane is suitable for USDA hardiness zones 2-11. It is a warm-season annual that thrives in hot, dry climates and is highly tolerant of heat and drought conditions.
  • Climate requirements: Mossrose purslane requires full sun exposure to thrive and produce abundant blooms. It prefers well-drained, sandy or loamy soil and can tolerate poor soil conditions. The plant is highly heat-tolerant and can withstand temperatures up to 100°F (38°C) or higher.
