Maybe I'll pot some of what I pull, just to enjoy the blossoms!

It's probably the same one, Bonnie. In the wild, blooms can range from

That is a pretty little blossom, isn't it.  Is it as invasive as the
purslane I pull tons of here?

Found the prettiest wild purslane [Portulaca oleracea] growing in my

--couldn't decide whether to let it be or eat it. Ms. Fatma wants to
try to transplant it to a hanging basket once the rain subsides.
