Despite the beating from falling rain these heat lovers are surviving.
Portulaca was one of my favorite flowers growing up. We had a large rock covered with them. The last died so I am trying again to reestablish this old favorite of mine. So far, so good.

Portulaca! I haven't seen them in years. I always think they look like something out of a children's book illustration.
The Portulaca is lovely. It looks very delicate! Enjoy your Monday and have a happy week ahead!

I love moss roses. They are so unique!

I almost cried when I saw this-My mother always had a huge flowerbed full of these in Missouri where I was raised.
I've tried to grow them in N. Ontario, but they love a hotter, drier climate.
Your moss roses look beautiful in your rock garden.
I hope they do get reestablished. I have always liked them too.
I hope all is well.
I bought some last spring and planted them in a pot. they reseeded and are filling in the pot again.
so beautiful! we have a wild variety of moss rose which is a tiny purple bloom around the rock driveway area.
I am a fan of those as well.
That is so pretty, I'd never heard of it.

They seem to be doing well in those little spots.
So pretty and delicate.
What a beautiful little plant and one I have never seen before.I will check it out further on Google now.
So delicate. What a site it must have been to see a blanket of them over rocks.
Let them go to seed in the fall and they will provide you with many seedlings come spring:)
I love moss roses. They take me back to my childhood. I think it's the first flower I ever grew all by myself. :)
Oh my gosh so pretty!
My mum grew them in her gardens for years and since then I haven't seen them for years either ! Very pretty , Hope you can salvage them ! Lovely photos , thanks for sharing , Have a good day !
Very pretty. These are my Mom's favorite plant. We've had buckets of rain here in
Louisiana, but my tomatoes & flowers are glorious and my blueberries are magnificent. xo
