Too bad vegetables aren’t as tough as weeds. Sure would make growing vegetables a no brainer.

you've never met purselane? :) it grows here and Mom considers it a weed and she won't eat any of it, but once in a while i will eat some so i don't try too hard to eradicate all of it. the plant is so different that i like it as a contrast to other plants.

bindweed is not in our yard but morning glories are in a few spots that i'm trying to get it out of after it dropped many thousands of seeds.

I bought purslane seed to add to my live mulch in my garden!

i really wouldn't unless you really really want to deal with it... it is too bad we can't get moss roses to grow as easily as the purselane does (they're related plants).
