Winter Purslane (Claytonia Perfoliata) - Seeds

Also called Cuban Claytonia, winter purslane is a stout aromatic plant with broad green leaves (extremely wide), fleshy and numerous, with a very mild flavor. This low, spreading plant has fleshy green leaves perched at the end of long 20 cm tall stems. Its leaves are thick, tender with a mild taste. They are used raw in salads, in a sandwich, or cooked like spinach or in soup. Purslane is also rich in vitamin E and minerals. Winter purslane is perfectly suited for late-season cultivation as it withstands cold very well, down to -20°C if well protected and planted.
