I have found this too. My efforts to dry a lot of purslane have been vindicated 😄

This is from an interesting article about using garden greens including marshmallows and other mallows, hollyhocks and lots of others.

From the same article. I might try fermenting some, altho I just did a taste test of the seed thingy (jwhich eventually dries and breaks into a thousand* seeds) and wasn't overly impressed. It's a bit nothing, with a crunch.

So I took a spare moment to pop out to pick some of the hollyhock seed pods and realised that there were some, but Spring would be the best season.

But once I started pruning to get the pods, I just kept cutting. I'd been wanting to get rid of them from the veggie garden and sow some elsewhere.

So cut cut cut cut, chop chop chop, little digs little digs, and most of that great clump is out. Just one persistent large root that I'll take the choppers to tomorrow.

Now that feels good!
