This is a great photo of this wonderful plant. I grew this last year and enjoyed it and plan to grow it again.
Do you grow this for eating, Zuzu?

No, Dave. It just grows all over the place here. It's one of those wonderful "weeds" that adds color and beauty to bare spots and is easy to pull if it's in the wrong place.

You should taste it. It has a good flavor.

I tasted it, Dave. Very, very nice. Like a mild lettuce with a slightly tangy aftertaste, and much juicier than I had expected. Thanks!
