Hot Shot® Pink Grapefruit - Purslane

Hot Shot® Pink Grapefruit brings pale yellow-to-peach flowers with orange centers to the Hot Shot® purslane series. Its warm blend of tones works well in patio containers and mixed summer planters. ## Garden Use The [Green Fuse Hot Shot series profile](https://green-fuse.com/new/purslane-hot-shots/) identifies Pink Grapefruit among the named color selections and recommends pots, hanging baskets, and combination planters. Green Fuse describes the series as tolerant of hot, dry landscape conditions, making it useful for a sunny spot where soil is allowed to dry between watering. Combine it with plants that share its preference for bright light and free-draining soil. ## Maintenance Use a freely draining potting mix and a container with open drainage. Water thoroughly, then let the soil dry completely before watering again. Pinching encourages branching, while light shearing can restore shape and fullness.
