Mojave Fuchsia has vivid dark pink flowers all season and succulent-like foliage. It is heat, drought, and salt-tolerant, attracts pollinators, and does not require deadheading. Use in pots, window boxes, baskets, and as a ground cover. The flowers of Portulaca will close at night and reopen the next day.
  • 4-8 inches tall and 12-16 inches wide at maturity
  • Annual except in zones 10-11
  • Plant in full sun (6+ hours daily)
  • Space plants 8-10 inches apart for best results
  • Produces fuchsia-pink flowers from planting to frost
  • Maintains green foliage spring to frost
  • Great for containers, edging, groundcover, landscapes
  • Attracts bees and butterflies
  • Heat tolerant, drought tolerant, salt tolerant, long blooming, low maintenance, succulent, deadheading not necessary

The Eco+Grande features nutrients embedded in the container walls, which help plants grow bigger and faster throughout the season when planted in the ground. Be sure to remove the tabs from the container before planting. If you choose to plant in a container, we recommend taking the plant out of the Eco+Grande, breaking it apart, and mixing it into the soil at the time of planting. When the Proven Winners Eco+Grande container is discarded in the garbage can, it will naturally break down faster in a landfill than a traditional petroleum made container. The container will get smaller and smaller until microbes consume it, turning it back into an inert organic product. Learn more about this in our blog.

Care: Fertilize weekly with Proven Winners Water Soluble Plant Food for best performance. The flowers of Portulaca will close at night and reopen the next day. They will tolerate dry soils, although they will perform optimally with average moisture. These are tough plants that will tolerate poor soils and do not need a lot of fertilizer to perform well. Deadheading is not needed.
