[@lisahinton9682]

Fantastic video. Lots of info without being overwhelming. I love that you covered food plus advantages to the garden. And that you even mentioned the look-alike and how to differentiate between the two. Thank you so much for this great video.

[@hands2hearts-seeds2feedamu83]

I just realized I have some growing in a bucket I use for growing garden plants.!! I have NO idea how this plant got into the bucket. I do not see any of this plant growing any other place on my property. And I have never bought any of it either. I am confused as to how I got this... But I am SO so very thankful for it...!!!

[@JaniceCrowell]

Deer LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Purslane! They continually decimated my purslane when I lived in Texas!

I've always pulled this out of sidewalks where it sprawls like crazy. Now I decided to look up what it is today and I find I've been waiting nutritious vegetables!

[@pookiewood]

I have a pot of this in my yard and I'm over here like 😮 I did not know this!

[@patriotictv024]

In our country they grow naturally but I had no idea about it thanks alot.

[@succulents_galore]

We havethem too in Southafrica

[@whosedoingwhat]

Great info but I’m still nervous re. identifying it. I have Floratam grass & always get dollar weed, and another deep root spreader but it’s def. not Purslane. I may have to purchase a plant to visually see close up then be on the watch for “the weed”🙂TY!

[@skyangel6336]

Hi! I have a question You are saying the wild ones have a yellow flower...I've never grow them but they've popped up in my garden right beside that awful spurge and mine have hot pink flowers? I used the picture this app and it says it's common purslane but the flowers weren't bloomed when I tried to indentify and now some flowers have bloomed and they are a hot pink color. Just want to make sure those are ok took but if they are hybrids I don't know how they came up there.

[@cheryllwaldrop9732]

It seems that when the hybridized purslane drops seeds, the offspring are the wild purslane with the smaller flowers. Do you find this to be frequently the case?

[@grateful7839]

Nice video. Subscribed.

[@CentralTexasGardener]

Awesome, thank you!

[@therayman3]

Is there purslane growing all year round or is there purslane all year round in Texas?

[@johanconradie2120]

purslane just comes up everywhere, for everyone, alltime...

[@tinakim713]

How can we eat it?

[@etiturashvili4313]

I have that one with red flowers.can I eat that?or its poisonous?

[@CentralTexasGardener]

I'd hesitate to reply without knowing your plant for sure.

[@AirQuotes848]

Never tasted that

[@sukigroenveld7632]

[@mahadyhasan8566]

Are the flowering pursalne really edible?

[@pabs8]

I don’t think the flowered ones are

[@mweber5459]

They all produce flowers right?

[@cheryllwaldrop9732]

I have nibbled on the leaves of the flowering plants with no problems. I haven't grown enough to be willing to harvest a whole meals' worth, though.

[@blayemmanuel4512]

Hello

[@unafoca]

CAN I EAT THE FLOWERS TOO? I WANTED IF SOMEONE CAN TELL ME LIKE THE NAME OF THE PLANT THAT IS SIMILAR AND POISONOUS

[@akinpaws]

She said the name; spurge. It has hairy stems and milky sap. Google pictures of spurge and purslane to learn the difference.

Why do you talk so fast?? :(
