White Purslane Live Plants | Pack of 2 (TWO) | 5-9" Tall | Moss Rose Portulaca

What You Will Receive: You will receive a Pack of 2 healthy, well-rooted White Purslane starter plants, each currently 5-9 inches tall. Shipped bare-root and ready to plant, these vigorous succulent starts establish quickly, offering a faster route to a pristine, blooming groundcover than seeds or unrooted cuttings.

Cool Elegance for Hot Gardens: Bring a sense of crisp, cooling relief to your sun-drenched landscape. This variety features pure, snow-white blooms that contrast beautifully against the fleshy green foliage. The clean white color reflects sunlight during the day and "glows" in the evening light, making it a staple for "Moon Gardens."

The Ultimate "Spiller" & Groundcover: Solve your landscaping challenges effortlessly. With its low-growing, trailing habit, this Portulaca is the perfect choice for spilling gracefully over the edges of hanging baskets and window boxes, or for filling in gaps between stones in rock gardens where grass refuses to grow.

Thrives on Neglect: Stop worrying about watering schedules. Known as the "Sun Plant," this succulent stores water in its leaves, making it exceptionally drought-tolerant. It is the ideal candidate for scorching driveways, curbside strips, or west-facing patios where heat radiates and delicate flowers fail.

Pollinator Friendly Oasis: Invite nature to your patio. The open-faced white blooms act as a high-visibility landing pad for honeybees and butterflies, providing a crucial source of nectar during the hottest parts of the summer when other sources may be scarce due to heat stress.

Care Instructions: Upon arrival, unwrap gently and soak roots in water for 15 minutes. Plant in sandy, well-draining soil in a location receiving Full Sun (6+ hours). Water to establish, then let the soil dry out completely between waterings. Crucial: Ensure your pot has drainage holes; this plant hates "wet feet."

Safe Arrival Guarantee: We ship using eco-friendly, secure packaging designed to protect the delicate succulent stems. While some minor leaf drop is normal due to shipping stress (a natural survival mechanism), we guarantee your plants arrive with healthy, viable root systems ready to hydrate and regrow rapidly.

The "Little White Dress" of Your Garden

There is nothing quite as sophisticated as white flowers in a summer garden. Our 2-Pack of White Purslane offers a clean, modern aesthetic that cools down the look of your landscape even on the hottest days. While other plants wilt under the blazing sun, these snow-white blooms open wide, creating a shimmering carpet of petals that looks just as beautiful in a rustic cottage garden as it does in a modern minimalist planter.

Perfect for "Moon Gardens" If you enjoy sitting on your patio in the evening, this plant is essential. The pure white flowers reflect the fading light and moonlight, creating a glowing effect at twilight. It pairs perfectly with silver-foliage plants to create a serene, nighttime sanctuary.

A Succulent That Craves the Sun Portulaca, also known as Moss Rose, is nature’s survivalist. It is designed for the gardener who wants maximum impact with minimum effort.

The Heat Lover: If you have a concrete driveway or a stone wall that bakes in the afternoon sun, plant White Purslane there. It thrives in the reflected heat.

The Drought Warrior: Its needle-like leaves store moisture, allowing it to go days without water once established.

Vigorous & Adaptable
