Portulaca Grandiflora ‘Peppermint’ (Moss Rose)

Bring a splash of candy-striped colour to your garden with Portulaca Grandiflora ‘Peppermint’, also known as Moss Rose. This charming succulent annual is prized for its vibrant, bi-coloured blooms—delicate pink and white petals with sunny yellow centres—that open wide in full sun. Its fleshy, needle-like leaves form a low, trailing mat, making it perfect for hanging baskets, rock gardens, borders, or as a bright ground cover.

Moss Rose thrives in hot, dry conditions where many other flowers struggle, making it a low-maintenance favourite for sunny spots. Blooming from summer through early fall, it continuously produces cheerful, daisy-like flowers that attract pollinators while requiring minimal care.
