Pazzaz™ Campino Twist Red Purslane

Campino™ Twist Red is a semi-trailing purslane selected for early, colorful flowers and a spreading display. Danziger lists it in the PAZZAZ™ series and describes it as suited to pots, hanging baskets, ground cover, and pollinator plantings. The Penn State flower trial recorded multicolor flowers and a compact habit, with strong ratings through the summer trial dates. ## Garden Use Use it at the edge of a sunny container, in a hanging basket, or as a low seasonal ground cover where its stems can spill without crowding neighboring plants. The breeder lists a mature height of 10–12 inches and width of 14–16 inches. Its striped red flowers add contrast among warm colors and fine textured foliage. ## Growing Conditions Give this heat tolerant annual full sun and a freely draining site. It is suited to warm weather displays and can be combined with other plants that share its sun and drainage needs. Danziger lists spring and summer flowering and identifies the selection as an option for heat and drought tolerant programs. ## Maintenance Trim back stems only if they grow beyond the intended edge of a basket or bed. Remove faded flowers or uneven growth as needed to keep the display tidy.
