Purslane Hanging Baskets
We carry purslane hanging baskets, which draw bees.
Their blooms come in a variety of colors. They open up as the sun gets higher in the sky and closes as it lowers.
Purslane adores our Texas heat and sun. Even in the heat of summer, they stay filled with blooms. Dress up your patio or give one to your favorite mother-in-law. Because the hanging baskets like it hot, we usually don’t bring them out until the weather has officially warmed, usually around the start of April.
