GROW PORTULACA / MOSS ROSE FROM SEEDS EASILY…….BEST FLOWERING PLANT FOR SUMMER SEASON …HOW TO TAKE CARE OF PORTULACA / MOSS ROSE
DAIZZ’S TIPS:-
Moss roses, also know as Portulaca, are succulents. This means they are excellent flowers for a dry climate, since they store water well. They also are very easy to take care of after you get started. Most pleasingly, they come in many beautiful colors and are well-known for their showy blooms
Portulaca (Portulaca grandiflora), is also known as the sun rose or moss rose. Portulaca plants are native to Brazil, Argentina and Uruguay
Moss rose blossoms bloom all summer with jewel-toned colors. These flowers only open in bright sunlight. When the light level is low, the flowers close up.
You do not need to water often for proper portulaca care. The cylindrical foliage of the portulaca flower retains moisture very well, thus, regular watering is not needed.

Mist the planting area with a fine spray of water until the top of the soil is wet. The seeds will germinate in 3 to 4 days with temperatures of 70 to 75 degrees F. Flowers will appear 4 to 5 weeks after planting.

Sow Seeds Outdoors
1
Choose a planting location in full sun in a very well drained area. Spade or cultivate the soil when soil temperatures reach 65 degrees. Add 1 to 2 inches of sand if the soil drains poorly or contains too much humus.
2
Rake the area smooth with a garden rake. Tamp the area with a flat board to firm the soil and create a very even surface. Spray with a fine mist sprayer to moisten the soil.
3
Pour moss rose seeds into a container with three to four parts dry sand and mix thoroughly. Moss rose seeds are very fine, making it difficult to sow them thinly without the added sand.
4
Sprinkle the seed-sand mixture thinly over the area. Portulaca seed germinates most reliably when exposed to light, so do not cover seeds.
5
Monitor the seed bed. Germination takes place in 3 to 6 days when temperatures remain warm enough. If the soil dries out, spray with a fine mist. Do not over-water.
Start Seeds Indoors
1
Fill seedling cells with germinating mix and set in a tray of water to moisten from the bottom or soak peat pellets, allowing them to moisten and expand.
2
Pour moss rose seeds into a container with three to four parts dry sand and mix thoroughly.
3
Take a small pinch of sand-seed mixture and spread it on an individual cell or peat pellet, repeating this process until all the mixture is used.
4
Set pots or pellets in a sunny window where the temperature is consistently between 65 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit or use a heating mat set between 70 and 85 F.
5
Reduce heat to 60 F after germination.
6
Plant seedlings in the ground when the soil temperature reaches 65 F.

  1. क्या पैकेट के बीजों से उगाये गए portulaca प्लांट बाद में हर साल गर्मियों में flowers देते हैं या यह सिर्फ एक सीजन वाले बीज होते हैं
