Low-growing portulaca spreads across the front with brilliant double blooms that flourish in intense sunshine.

GROWING INSTRUCTIONS

Sowing Time
Sow indoors or under cover in March–April, or direct sow outdoors after the last frost. In cooler regions, sowing can continue into early May.

Position
Plant in full sun in well-drained soil. This collection thrives in warm, sunny conditions and is well suited to Mediterranean-style gardens and dry summer borders.

Sowing
Sow seeds thinly and cover lightly with soil. Keep soil lightly moist during germination. Thin or transplant seedlings once large enough to handle.

Spacing
Allow approximately 25–45 cm between plants depending on variety. Taller plants such as sunflowers and verbena benefit from extra space and support in exposed areas.

Watering
Water regularly while establishing. Once established, many varieties in this mix tolerate heat and short dry periods well. Avoid waterlogged soil.

Flowering
Blooms begin from early summer and continue into autumn with regular deadheading.

Maintenance
Remove faded flowers to encourage continuous blooming.
Taller plants may require staking in windy areas.
Feed lightly during the growing season for best flowering performance.
