I love stripe, streak, splash or broken colors purslane. They look best in hanging basket or patio pot where you can see them close.

If you have that kind of purslane, feel free to share them here Hurray!

Here is my new purslanes.

Solid colors are good for mass planting. Maybe thats why the solid ones more available than those multicolor ones. Smiling

Thank you Vicky. The splash on this specimen actually not contrast enough to be recognized from a distance. Let see if it can produce seed or easy to hybridize for better color Smiling

The mail order house is in Indonesia. Just small home scale business/collector.
I dont think if they can send plant material outside of teritory. If they can provide phytosanitary or other document. I will ask him to make sure Smiling

I noticed similar tiny bees visiting my purslane blooms. They are not honey bees, and I wonder what kind of bees they are? And where do they live?
