Moss roses are amazing little plants. I’ve had the same ones growing in a pot by my front door for years now. Mine are purple and red.

Portulaca. Found out a couple years ago it seeds and comes back the following year. Have it along my walkway.

Portulaca/purslane, there over so many different species of them! I own 5 different varieties including different colors! The ones u mainly see in stores like in bottom of pots or ground filler pots, are more consider your domestic version while this one is your wild one(aka it’s in a crack) but there such a great succulent/weed/flower plant to add to your garden for a bright vibrant small little cut flowers and yes there specific species of the family that has tiny flowers and even some have giant double layered ones(which I got 🤭)

“Grew” for years after getting a “start” from concrete; multicolored and some double bloom. All beautiful. Favorite was a peach/coral, double bloom. Would full bloom in the morning, and start wilting by afternoon in the heat of full summer. Kept coming back for years, survived multiple moves. Would love to discover more.

I love portulaca. I have a volunteer this year going gangbusters and I am thrilled! It’s super easy to collect seeds. I make a point to scatter them where I want them to grow

Portulaca or rose moss. It seeds itself.

They have super cool [seed pods](https://www.pinterest.com/pin/319474167308802888/). You can save the seed, broadcast it where you want it to come up and it will grow again next summer.
I love these. They come in different colors, they are so cute.
