Purslane, Common

VEGETABLES / PURSLANE
Generally considered to be a weed, this makes an excellent ground cover, and can be used as a border, or planted as a filler. Does well in rocky conditions, and requires very little maintenance. Is also edible, but please do research before eating anything unfamiliar and be sure you are confident in ID’ing. Small bees like this plant, and it will grow in all conditions. But requires full sun. (Like all succulents) The seeds are extremely small. This is one of the species that I can add in an order at no additional charge, because the pods are so small.
