Thia is interesting
I have grown and eaten from the wild purselane (portulaca oleracea ) for years and never come across a white flowered one . The rest of the plant looks right but the flower wrong , not only in color but shape . Does it have 5 petals?

I Always err on the safe side do not eat unless you are positive Smiling
..a balanced life is worth pursuit.
