SO I was examining my mexi-pings when I came across a weed that I just hadn't bothered to remove. It's amazing! and I've never seen it flower. Anyway, I have no idea what it is. Any help? I got the plant from pyro.
edit: sorry for the blur, but the colors are mostly right
Pyro, sure, youre the only one that has sent be a butt-load of ping hybrids. I have you marked as the sender. I guess seed could have fallen out of another plant I have, but this pot is the only it's come up in. I'll try to get some more pics in the next day or so.
Huh!?!? Well I guess it is some type of interloper but for the life of me I can not tell what kind. I do have a plant that pops up in my bogs that has similar foliage but I have never seen it flower so I can not say for sure. I do have portulaca running rogue in a few of my pots but the leaves are all wrong for that as portulaca has thinner leaves and the bloom has many many more petals.
I might have to let one of the bog raiders bloom just to see if it is the same...
ilovebutterwo, the seeds of both portulaca grandiflora and P. oleracea are easily obtained from many online seed sources. They are common in horticulture, so they are pretty cheap. portulaca grandiflora seeds can be found in your local kmart/walmart seed packets in the spring.
