The listing, moss rose (portulaca) seeds has ended.
Moss rose (portulaca) seeds-- various colors. Not sure if these are the double or single variety. Were originally purchased from Seed Savers, so you can find info online about this plant there.
You will receive a small packet of seeds. They are very tiny seeds, like granules of salt or pepper--I would estimate that there are definitely more than 100 seeds in the packet.
