kell, the blooms are so beautiful on this plant that when I saw them, that I grabbed the hanging basket in a hurry before someone else bought it. I would send you some seeds after they dry, but I don't think the new plants will look like their mother because it is a hybrid. I am going to try overwintering some cuttings in my greenhouse during the winter. I'll let you know if they make it. Thanks for your comments.

I sure do not blame you. Maybe I will print this out and ask around about it. THANKS

Wow, that sure is different & would really stand out in the garden. Would look so good in a hanging basket too. Will have to add that to the 2006 list. Nice photo.

broots, I had not seen any of these before until I spotted them at my favorite nursery late this summer. Mine are overflowing from a hanging basket. Thanks for your comments.

Htop, I would LOVE to trade some cuttings of my 'Fairytale Sleeping Beauty' purslane for some of your 'Cinderella?!' I too saw the 'Cinderella' at my local greenhouse, but there was only one crummy little pot that looked unhealthy, so I passed it up.........would love to have it though!

LMK =)

mkjones, I'll be taking cuttings before the first freeze and will be willing to share some of the pieces. I'll Dmail you when I do.
