1) Sunlight :
Portulaca loves full sun. Plant it where it can get at least 6-8 hours of direct sunlight each day.
2) Watering :
Water your Portulaca sparingly. It's drought-tolerant and does well with less water. Allow the soil to dry out between waterings.
3) Soil :
Use well-draining soil. Portulaca prefers sandy or rocky soil. Avoid heavy clay soils that retain water.
4) Temperature :
Portulaca thrives in warm weather. It loves temperatures between 70-90°F (21-32°C). Protect it from frost and extreme cold.
5) Feeding :
Fertilize lightly during the growing season. Use a balanced, slow-release fertilizer once a month for best results.
6)Pruning :
Deadhead (remove) faded flowers to encourage more blooms. Trim back any leggy growth to keep the plant compact and bushy.
7) Pests and Diseases :
Portulaca is generally pest-free, but watch out for aphids or mealybugs. Use a gentle insecticidal soap if needed
8) Propagation :
You can easily propagate Portulaca from cuttings. Simply take a cutting and plant it
