Happy Hour™ Pink Passion Mixture Portulaca

Happy Hour™ Pink Passion Mixture is a seed-grown Portulaca grandiflora mix in the Happy Hour™ series. It forms a tidy mound with a pink-toned flower display. Ball identifies the mixture as Rosita, Peppermint, and Fuchsia. Its product information gives late-spring and summer bloom, full sun, and mature dimensions of 8–10 inches tall by 10–12 inches wide. Happy Hour is bred to flower earlier under shorter day lengths than competing bush portulacas and is promoted for hot, dry conditions. The series is listed as drought- and heat-tolerant, low-maintenance, and attractive to bees and butterflies. North Carolina Extension recommends well-drained sandy or rocky soil for moss rose.
