Hot Shot® Fuchsia - Purslane

Hot Shot™ Fuchsia is a color form in the Purslane Hot Shot™ series; PHSFU01-1 is the product code to use when ordering or replacing this selection. The series is grown for warm-season containers and mixed plantings, where its vivid flowers add a seasonal accent. ## Containers and growing conditions Green Fuse’s [Purslane Hot Shot culture worksheet](https://green-fuse.com/new/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Purslane-Hot-Shot%C2%AE.pdf) recommends pots, hanging baskets, and combination planters, and notes that the series tolerates hot, dry landscape conditions. For production, it advises watering thoroughly and letting the growing medium dry between waterings; it also notes that pinching promotes branching. Keep the product label with the plant so its color and series can be matched when replacing it. ## Maintenance Use a freely draining container mix and provide warm, bright conditions. Water well, then allow the mix to dry before watering again, taking care not to leave the pot standing in water. Pinch growing tips when a fuller, branched plant is desired. Adjust watering to container size, temperature, and exposure, since small pots dry faster in hot weather.
