Mojave® Yellow Purslane

Mojave® Yellow is a golden-yellow flowered Portulaca umbraticola selection with green, succulent-like foliage. Proven Winners Direct describes its flowers as continuing from planting to frost, making it a long-season choice for sunny containers and beds. ## Flowers and garden use The [Mojave Yellow profile](https://provenwinnersdirect.com/products/mojave-yellow-purslane) gives a mature size of 4–8 inches tall by 12–16 inches wide and lists containers, edging, ground cover, and landscape use. The low, spreading outline can cover open soil or spill over a basket edge. Its flowers attract bees and butterflies, and the cultivar tolerates heat, drought, and salt exposure. ## Growing conditions Set it in full sun. The seller notes that it handles poor soil and dry conditions, though average moisture supports performance; it is generally annual except in zones 10–11. The species’ succulent foliage and day-opening flowers suit bright, warm locations. ## Maintenance Water during establishment, then allow the soil to dry between waterings and keep pots draining freely. Weekly feeding is suggested by the seller for best performance, but the plant tolerates poor soils and does not require heavy fertilizing. Deadheading is unnecessary.
