I was wondering if anyone knows if the plant called VERDULAGAS. Its kind of a succulant-looking (BUT ITS NOT) small green leave with bronze edging and lasts like
a lettuce. People eat it as a salad green.
Thanks!
Also know as Purslane. While its not toxic, due to the high Vit A and oxalate, I wouldn't feed it. Its pretty much like spinach.
100 grams of fresh purslane leaves (about 1 cup) contain 300 to 400 mg of alpha-linolenic acid. One cup of cooked leaves contains 90 mg of calcium, 561 mg of potassium, and more than 2,000 IUs of vitamin A. One half cup of purslane leaves contains as much as 910 mg of oxalate, a compound implicated in the formation of kidney stones. However, note that many common vegetables, such as spinach, also can contain high concentrations of oxalates.
