I wanted to see a pic of the pusley to see if it's the same as we have in Jamaica. But the "Page is no longer available." I will check on it elsewhere on line. I also want to check on something we have called "Leaf of Life."

Not at all like the pusley (purslane) we have a lot of in Jamaica.
But ours is edible too.

Do you know the nutrients of Florida Pusley? My russians will eat so much of this when they graze supervised outside, they have cleared their whole enclosure of it and love it so much. Just want to know if it is healthy to eat that much of it.

We have Purslane here in Florida too.
It doesnt look like that.
My tortoises eat all the Purslane they can find.
Luckily it grows back back slowly.
