Hot Shot® Yellow - Purslane

Hot Shot Yellow is the yellow-flowered color form shown in Green Fuse’s Purslane Hot Shot™ series. The official culture sheet recommends the series for pots, hanging baskets and combination planters, and notes its tolerance of hot, dry conditions. Its vivid color adds a bright accent to sunny container combinations. ## Garden use Place it in a patio pot, hanging basket or mixed planter where the yellow flowers can be viewed nearby. Pair it with other plants suited to bright conditions and provide enough room for branching growth. ## Growing conditions The [Green Fuse series page](https://green-fuse.com/new/purslane-hot-shots/) lists Yellow among the named Hot Shot colors. The [culture sheet](https://green-fuse.com/new/wp-content/uploads/2026/06/Purslane-Hot-Shot%C2%AE.pdf) recommends a sterile, well-drained mix and letting soil dry completely between irrigations. ## Maintenance Pinch young stems to encourage lateral branching. Plants in pots can be sheared back lightly to shape and fill the container. Water thoroughly, allow drainage, and avoid keeping the mix continuously wet.
