Back to buying optionsDeep Pink Portulaca Live Plants – 2 Moss Rose Starter Plants | 4–6 Inch Tall | Pink Flowering Succulent | Groundcover | No Pot
Add vibrant color and easy-care beauty to sunny garden spaces with this set of 2 live Deep Pink Portulaca plants, Portulaca grandiflora. Also known as Moss Rose, Portulaca is a popular flowering succulent admired for its brilliant deep pink blooms, fleshy green foliage, and low-growing spreading habit.
Each starter plant is approximately 4–6 inches tall and ships without a pot, with the roots protected by soil or moisture-retaining material. These are young plants rather than mature flowering displays and will need time to establish and develop fuller growth.
Portulaca is especially well suited to sunny borders, rock gardens, containers, hanging baskets, and warm-climate landscapes. Once established, it is relatively drought tolerant and requires less water than many traditional flowering plants.

✔️ 2 live Deep Pink Portulaca plants
✔️ Portulaca grandiflora
✔️ Approximately 4–6 inches tall each
✔️ Healthy young starter plants
✔️ Shipped without pots
