Purslane
Purslane Seeds – Nutritious, Hardy, and Deliciously Unexpected
Purslane (Portulaca oleracea) is a humble yet powerful plant, an edible succulent packed with omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and a slightly lemony crunch. Grown for centuries across cultures as both food and medicine, it thrives in poor soil, hot weather, and even neglect, making it an easy choice for beginner and seasoned gardeners alike. Its low growing, spreading habit makes it ideal for edible ground cover, container gardens, or kitchen gardens where every plant has a purpose. Great raw in salads or lightly sautéed, purslane is a nutrient dense green with unexpected gourmet flair. Sow it once, and it often returns with vigor. Grow wellness. Grow purslane.
