Portulaca DiscoDoubles is a spectacularly bright flowering ground cover that will provide the addition of the most beautiful mix of colour to any garden. This variety has the typical fine succulent foliage common to most portulacas, however DiscoDoubles consists of the superior pure-coloured double flowering varieties, which often flower far more profusely. This self-seeding variety is an ideal cottage garden plant, as it will generally grow as a quasi-perennial, by renewing itself through naturalised seedlings. Portulaca DiscoDoubles is suitable for pots (including hanging-baskets), borders, and rockeries and is often inter-planted between established plants to provide additional colour, particularly in cottage garden style settings. Portulaca DiscoDoubles produces some of the brightest coloured flowers of all the Portulaca varieties available. The brightest flowering variety is Portulaca Summer Blaze, also available from our garden store.
