How To Keep Blooms Through The Day.

Question

I live in Viet Nam and have planted portulaca around some garden beds. They flower beautifully from 8:00am to 10:00am and then the flowers die off. Is there any way to extend the life of flowers?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, no. This trait is an interesting one, though. They will flower very reliably during that time, so you can use it like a clock, sort of!

Here is an article that will help you give them the best care, possible:
