Talinum is a genus of around 50 species of herbaceous succulent plants in the family Talinaceae (formerly in the family Portulacaceae) whose common names include fameflower and flameflower. Several species bear edible leaves and roots. The genus is distributed along dry areas of tropical and subtropical Africa, North America and Central America. The smooth, often succulent, leaves and their showy, cup- or saucer-shaped flowers make them nice additions to the rock garden. Grow them in well-drained soil of poor to moderate fertility in full sun. Indoors, use a cactus potting mix and grow in full light with good ventilation. |
