Portulaca Grandiflora commonly known as Moss Rose, Purslane, Rose Moss or Mexican Rose are easy to start from seed producing a wonderful, colorful, long lasting ground cover. This mix of Portulaca seeds comes in a combination of the most intense, colorful blooms. 

The 2-inch flowers on these ground cover plants are fully double and beautifully shaped. The blooms stay opened for long periods of time, and they are nestled above the succulent foliage like shrub roses.

Purslane ground cover grows up to 6 inches tall and spread an incredible 14 - 16 inches in a sunny garden and is perfect for hot, dry garden areas.

Rose Moss is also perfect for filling containers to overflowing with small, needle-like foliage and masses of great blooms;

• Transplant the Moss Rose seedlings into the garden 12 inches apart.
• Portulaca seeds can also be directly sown in prepared soil outdoors after all danger of frost gone.

• Portulaca Moss Rose care includes cutting back the plants during the summer to help them to stay tidy and extend their blossoming into fall.
