Help identifying odd leafy thing
« on: March 04, 2008, 18:33 »
I had this in a posh restaurant "mixed leaf" salad a while ago

The stems seem to kind of grow up through the round leaves and it has tiny yellow flowers on the top. I thought it might be purslane but it's not.

I've tried googling it all variety of descriptions but with no success, can you help ? I really want to grow some cos they were yummy.

Miners lettuce, pretty, little thing, also called winter purslane, I think. The leaves of these are not really round though, just look roundish.

Check in Kings Seeds catalogue or on google images if that's the one. :wink:
