Portulaca ( Sunrose ) Seed




Portulaca, or moss rose and sometimes sunrose as it is commonly known, creates a cheerful garden. With flowers in a rainbow of colors, planted in masses it can be the focal point of the garden. Portulaca is a carefree plant, heat and drought-tolerant, that thrives in a hot, sunny area of the yard. The flowers will close at night and reopen in the morning. Raw ( not pelleted ) Portulaca seeds are tiny so be careful while planting. If you plan to get a head start on the growing season, start the portulaca seeds indoors four to six weeks prior to the last frost.
