(Portulaca) These low-growing succulent-like plants form a dense mat of 2” flowers. Often used in the landscape for hot, dry places. Very pretty en-masse (each plant will spread about 15”). Newer hybrids offer so many color variations in single and double flower forms. They have larger leaves compared to seed-type portulaca. Also useful as accents in baskets and containers. Heat and sun-lovers.
