Description

White purslane is a compact, succulent-leaved flowering plant with cheerful white blooms. It grows roughly 4–8 inches tall and 14–16 inches wide and works well in sunny hanging baskets, window boxes, and borders. This heat-loving plant performs well through Alabama summers when planted in fast-draining soil. Give full sun, water thoroughly, then allow the soil to dry somewhat before watering again; constant moisture can cause root problems. Flowers attract visiting pollinators. Protect from frost and grow as a warm-season annual in most of Alabama.
