Common in our yards but little known in the North America kitchen, purslane is both delicious and exceptionally nutritious. Common purslane (portulaca oleracea) is the most frequently reported weed species in the world. It can grow anywhere that has at least a two-month growing season.
Purslane, related to Portulaca, has rounded succulent leaves that grow vigorously and thrives in hot, dry conditions
Purslane is perfect for hot summer conditions when you need a full sun, drought tolerant option
These beautiful, bold blooms in a hanging basket provide instant color and life to your outdoor porches, patios or decks
Hang anywhere for a pop of color
The hotter the better for this sun lover; it needs well-drained soil and thrives in dry conditions; water when the soil feels dry but don’t keep the soil moist
