Portulaca

Portulaca is a great ground cover in your landscape or trailing out of containers. Sometimes known as the sun rose or moss rose Portulaca flowers tolerate many kinds of soil but prefer sandy, well-drained soil and LOVE the full sunlight preferring hot, dry climates. Try them in your hard to grow areas such as edging along driveways or sidewalks, rocks gardens, and stone walls. The vibrant colored blooms attract butterflies and hummingbirds and are deer resistant.
