Golden Purslane Specialty Greens - Organic

Portulaca oleracea var. sativa
(50 days) Open-pollinated. Its wild relative, the common garden weed, was a favorite edible of both Thoreau and Gandhi. This domesticated strain is more erect than the wilding, with larger leaves, and not crawly. Succulent texture with a mildly acerbic flavor that makes it an ideal addition to salad mixes. Golden-green leaves in an X-pattern. ①

Additional Information

Purslane

Culture: Direct seed in spring, after danger of frost. Thin to 5" apart. Can be cut; will regenerate. We recommend a succession planting to maximize tenderness. Can self- sow, but does not become weedy.

Its Latin name means ‘milk-bearing vegetable.’ Purslane leaves have more vitamin C than spinach leaves and are rich in omega-3 fatty acids and antioxidants.
