I just don't find the peppery, lemon flavor that everyone talks about. I'd bet Susan and I could each send you a handful of soil and it would be so full of seed you'd have a whole crop. A little trivia, just for fun ~
From

Known formally as portulaca oleracea, and informally as little hogweed, purslane is a succulent herb that looks, as one Baltimore chef put it, like a miniature jade plant. A more colorful description can be found in seed catalogs, which note that in Malawi, the name for the fleshy, round-leafed plant translates to "the buttocks of the wife of a chief."
