Portulaca grandiflora is commonly known as Japanese rose or moss rose. It is a drought and heat tolerant plant where it stores water in its fleshy leaves and stems. The saucer-shaped, rose like flowers with 5 paper thin petals are produced on the stem tips, held facing up above the foliage, opening from buds that resemble little popcorn kernels. The flowers open in bright sunlight and closing at night and on cloudy days.
