Hi,
May I ask (very timidly) if you meant to spell Portulaca instead of Portaluca?? If so, try Portulaca or moss rose... Hope this helps...

I just love Portulacas......just bought five 6 packs of them yesterday--sundial mix!!!  They add such color and can tolerate such heat!  Wonderful plants......  ![[flower]](im/graemlins/flower.gif)

I'm in zone 7a and even the ones I started outside have come up in abundance.  The ones I started indoors are taller though.  They sure are easy care plants.

I've had them before and like them. I never was able to keep any over the winter though.
Maybe this year.

I was thinking they were annuals.  But I am such a numb brain I could be completely out there.

Oh . . . annuals . . . well now, that explains why I didn't get 'em through the winter, I guess.
Heh! Heh!

I planted some in a hanging pot one year and kept them out side until it started getting cool and then brought them inside. I hung them in a west facing window and they did pretty good. I took them back out the following spring. I think they might have survived but a football took them and the pot out so I can't really say...  ![[Eek!]](im/eek.gif)

Oh PC that is fantastic news.  If I can over winter them in the house I will try.  They are a great plant.  And I have a window that my other sucullents just love so maybe...
