this thing grows like a weed. great ground cover. i love it. didnt know it was easy to propagate (thanks for the tip!) so i've been buying at walmart. they come in white, orange, pink, and white - unaware of other colors). extremely low maintenance in hot/humid climates. A+!!!!
I found purslane for the first time this year. Wow, what a performer in our OKC area yard. I cut off a few stems mid July and added them to a pot with a young autumn joy sedum.
great video, I had one take root randomly in my backyard and really like the blooms on it. Will be trying to propagate more. Located in Las Vegas NV, it's handling the 110F summer just fine
Just saw you and your lovely wife on the central texas gardener channel! Really enjoyed the video. I hope all is well with y’all as you welcome your little one soon😊
Thanks haha, working with Linda from CTG was a very cool experience! Actually our little one was born back in May haha, she's 4 months old at the moment and loving life!
I know this is a purslane video, and I love it! It’s a super food! Buuut, what is the variety of olives? I have 9 I have been limping along for years until I can decide where to plant them.
What do I do with my purslane now that it’s fall? How do I keep it over winter. Mine is all in pots. I live in Burnet. Thanks! And yes, God made us all to live in His beautiful garden- and we WILL live with Him again someday! ❤😊
I'm gonna try to keep some of mine alive in containers in my garage under a heatlamp (its all we can do because they cant handle a freeze), you could also take cuttings and transplant them inside for the winter, though they probably wont get enough light worst case scenario, we can always get more purslane from a local nursery or hardware store in the spring
@@AustinTexasGardening I never imagined anyone buying purslane. All I knew about was the yellow kind that that abundantly self-seeds itself. It is delicious, and grown as a vegetable in many parts of the world. (To eat the plant, harvest it before the flower buds form. It gets tough as it ages. Americans typically call it a weed.) I didn't know this annual would grow from cuttings. Annuals usually reproduce by seed. I saved a whole lot of seeds from my volunteers by waiting until the flowers formed seeds. I put the plants upside down in a paper bag and shook the plant. I don't know if fancy purslane bought in a store is a hybrid that will have surprises in its seed, or not. It is possible that a hybrid will even be infertile.
I came looking for more information on how common purslane propagates itself, as in my garden it's a pest! It never occurred to me someone would grow it intentionally unless they liked eating it.🤷 To each their own. Keep that thumb green!
Very inspirational! Love this plant.

Purslane is such an underrated plant. Great video!
This is so pretty! And I love that the bees and hummingbirds are coming around.
Entertaining and helpful!! Love purslane. Thanks for sharing
Glad you enjoyed the video!
Thank you very much. Trying to propagate mine in the South of Italy ❤
Thank you, very helpful!❤

Nice good 1 part garden soil
1 part of Cocopeat & Compost
1 Handful of Neemcake powder nice work

Those are Arbequina olives, they do great here, In Jan 2021 I made a video about brining them!
Thank you for sharing, mine's huge i need to cut some of it.
Good luck! I might wait for it to cool down a bit, I tried to root some cuttings I recently and they died in the heat
So beautiful 😊stay connected ❤
Thanks for watching!
Nice video!
Thanks for watching!
how long have you have the mother plant? I’ve read it’s an annual but i’m so in love with it naturally i looked into how to get a few of them!
nearly two years now, not sure how many containers I've propped to - 8 or 9
What do I do with my purslane now that it’s fall? How do I keep it over winter. Mine is all in pots. I live in Burnet. Thanks! And yes, God made us all to live in His beautiful garden- and we WILL live with Him again someday! ❤😊

I live in Austin and I'm trying to plan for wintering my purlsane inside. They are huge!! I'd send photos if I could. Got any recommendations?
Overwintering with 20k lumen work lamps has gotten me through the past two winters:

Did you water propagate or put them right into the soil?
I put them right in the soil, the ones in this video proped well, but direct in the soil doesn’t work with July 2023’s highs of 105
So, you just stick it back in the ground after you pulled off a few of the leaves?
Thats basically it, just do it in the spring, the heat will kill your cuttings

I wouldn’t want it in my lawn, but I like the flowers in containers
You showed very little of the actual propagation technique and didn’t demonstrate it at all. 🤷🏼♀️
