Notes to myself

For the past several summers, I've kept a potted ice plant in the back yard. I'd always bring it inside the garage for the winter, but for some reason, it'd never survive. So I have to start over every spring. This year, I bought a 'Peppermint' moss rose from Rainbow Gardens in San Antonio. The foliage is a bit different from what I've grown in the past, but I just love this one. The blooms are so pretty and prolific, too. 

Hmmm, this post has made me wonder about common names. There seem to be plenty for this kind of plant–moss rose....ice plant....portulaca...purslane.
