Thank you Vickie,

I noticed your in N.C.and i am in Ga. not far from Augusta,about when does your Portulaca die back for the winter and how long does your purslane last in it's HB's?I have MS and most of my funds are used for medical bills,so i really try to buy plants that are either perennials or reseed.I have some Dianthus that i planted last summer & they bloomed all spring,summer,fall,all winter and are still blooming!! The only break they took was a few times when the seasons changed they would only have maybe 2 or 3 blooms.It's not a large clump of them,they are the ones that don't grow tall,just kind of grow in a clump.If i gave them more attention they may look better.THE POINT sorry i ramble,wonder if i planted them and the winter is a light one,it may not bloom like the Dianthus but maybe not die back or come back,Or are these plants that they live in hot sunny weather and that's it and I'm just hoping really big heehee Rolling on the floor laughing

Does anyone know the species or cultivar? the hot pink one i believe is called Portulaca oleracea cv. 'Toucan Scarlet Shades'
A green thumb comes only as a result of the mistakes you make while learning to see things from the plants point of view!!
