Purslane - Portulaca oleracea
Purslane is a wild edible plant that is loaded with nutrients including vitamins A, C, E, magnesium calcium, iron, phosphorous, potassium, and omega 3s. Purslane is more commonly eaten in the Mediteranean and some other places around the world. Purslane grows well in warm weather and can spread rapidly. If you don't wan't it in your garden, you can pick and eat purslane. It can spread quickly and choke out other plants, so eat your weeds if you don't want your purslane to take over!
Please consume wild plants at your own risk! Consult multiple reliable sources before consuming any wild plants! This video is for information and entertainment only!

HI , i couldn't find purslane seed or plant in Vancouver. Would you please be able to help me?@OkanaganGardenerandForager

@natejansen892 2 месяца назад

Because it spreads more like a ground cover I don't mind it in my garden at all

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 2 месяца назад

Yes, same for me. Thank you!

@BrokeButBountifullyBlessed799 2 месяца назад

I don't find much around here. So, I pulled some and planted it in some containers last year. It's not growing very fast

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 2 месяца назад

Sometimes it starts slowly, but once it gets hot it speeds up!

@karenr7931 Год назад

With the abundance of nutrients in purslane, do you think it's beneificial to add it to compost?

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 9 месяцев назад

I would definitely say yes!

@GD-bm1bu 2 месяца назад

More beneficial if you eat them everyday:)

@JO-zu3mz 6 месяцев назад

Found some in my dad's garden last year, presumably from the soil he got dropped off. It's tasty; this year I'm gonna try to get it to colonize a patch

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 6 месяцев назад

It spreads quickly if you let it. Good luck!

@DarkBoiJoseph Год назад

Bro, i have many of them, they are avtually tasty, also try moringa, these guys have ALL vitamins

@OkanaganGardenerandForager Год назад

@nowhere982 Год назад

What does it taste like??? Is it nice to eat??? Do you eat raw or cooked???

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 9 месяцев назад

Sometimes I say it tastes like a spicey cucumber, but my kids disagree with me on that. It's probably more like lemony spinach and crunchy.

@zedmeinhardt3404 Год назад

I believe might want to be careful if you have oxalate sensitivity. Otherwise great snack

@OkanaganGardenerandForager Год назад

Good tip! Thanks!

@DarkBoiJoseph Год назад

Purslane takes nutrients even from the soil i have alot of them when they grow i remove it and eat it

@OkanaganGardenerandForager Год назад

Me too!

@theanmozhiarumugam5647 Год назад

You are right man .....I eat it

@OkanaganGardenerandForager Год назад

It's a good one! Thanks!

@CAF1904 Год назад

It’s great to add on pico de gallo with avocado and lime as a side

@user-kr911 4 месяца назад

In Wisconsin they sell these in greenhouses as trailing portulaca. Is that the same thing? Looks identical but has beautiful flowers of all different colors

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 2 месяца назад

It sounds similar but maybe it's different. I think these ones only have yellow flowers, but what I don't know could fill a warehouse!

@prism5161 24 дня назад

How do I store it when I pick it?

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 24 дня назад

For short term use, I would just keep it in the fridge. You could also put it in some pickle brine for pickled purslane!

@larrykoroush6995 2 месяца назад

I found them growing in the gravel outside my home. Thinking they were weeds, I pulled them. When I pulled them, I usually found ants and tunnels, so I kept pulling. them

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 2 месяца назад

I like to say they're weeds if you don't want them.

@_technomo 5 дней назад

I decided to keep the ant colony in my garden because they’re tunnels provide direct oxygen access to roots, and they keep away other critters without harming the plants 🐜

@silvanabroccoli1941 Год назад

Where to get a full list of what they contain ?

@deboragrea1379 Год назад

in indonesia, precisely in java iland, we called *crokot* 😂😂

@OkanaganGardenerandForager Год назад

Oh, cool! Thank you!

@EM_303 2 месяца назад

Don't confuse it with spurge. Spurge is spotted and thinner and not edible.

@OkanaganGardenerandForager 2 месяца назад

Good tip! Thanks!

@kaydensolano1323 Год назад

Taste kinda like lettuce

@OkanaganGardenerandForager Год назад

Yeah, I think so a little bit.

@carriebeard-R.I.T.S Год назад

Do you know if the purslane sold at garden centers is edible?

@OkanaganGardenerandForager Год назад

I can't say for all of them for sure. I know that people do intentionally grow purslane as a food crop. If you can find the species name, Portulaca oleracea, I would be very confident it's the same and it's edible.
