Hi,
May I ask (very timidly) if you meant to spell Portulaca instead of Portaluca?? If so, try Portulaca or moss rose... Hope this helps...

You are most welcome and don't worry I have those kinds of days quite often! ![[Wink]](im/wink.gif)

I just love Portulacas......just bought five 6 packs of them yesterday--sundial mix!!! They add such color and can tolerate such heat! Wonderful plants......

I'm in zone 7a and even the ones I started outside have come up in abundance. The ones I started indoors are taller though. They sure are easy care plants.

I've had them before and like them. I never was able to keep any over the winter though.
Maybe this year.

I was thinking they were annuals. But I am such a numb brain I could be completely out there.

Oh . . . annuals . . . well now, that explains why I didn't get 'em through the winter, I guess.
Heh! Heh!

I planted some in a hanging pot one year and kept them out side until it started getting cool and then brought them inside. I hung them in a west facing window and they did pretty good. I took them back out the following spring. I think they might have survived but a football took them and the pot out so I can't really say... ![[Eek!]](im/eek.gif)

Oh PC that is fantastic news. If I can over winter them in the house I will try. They are a great plant. And I have a window that my other sucullents just love so maybe...
