Description
Rock Purslane is an herb that loves the sun and the hot weather that comes with it, so it can handle dry conditions without breaking a sweat. They are a perfect plant for borders, rock gardens, as a ground cover, or in containers. Its succulent leaves have a neat mounding habit and only grow to 6” high, but the flower stems covered in bright red blooms can reach 20” tall.
