Common Purslane, or Portulaca Oleracea, is an edible succulent plant known for its tangy leaves and vibrant flowers. This adaptable plant is an excellent choice for your garden, offering both visual interest and a source of nourishment. Its small, yellow flowers attract a variety of pollinators, including bee and butterfly species. Purslane is known for its ability to live and thrive in poor, compacted, or alkaline soils where other plants might struggle. It's often found in disturbed areas like gardens, fields, and roadside ditches. To prevent it from becoming a weed, it can be grown in pots and harvested before it goes to seed.

• Adaptable and Prolific Growth - Common Purslane is a resilient, drought-resistant annual succulent plant sometimes known green purslane or pigweed. The plants are easy to grow, heat and drought tolerant, growing in poor soils and in other hot spots. Although it is an annual, it spreads easily and will reseed itself aggressively, making it a good choice for ground cover. Container gardening is an easy way to restrict its spread.
• Nutrient-Rich Edible Plant - Known for its fleshy leaves and golden flowers, common purslane is grown as an ornamental flower, an edible vegetable, and as a medicinal edible herb. The thick greens are packed with Omega-3s and have a tangy, slightly salty taste that adds flavor and nutrients to salads, stews, or stir-fries.
