Purslane seeds — succulent, lemony salad leaves

Purslane is a juicy little salad leaf with a pleasant lemony tang and a satisfying crunch — succulent, fleshy and surprisingly nutritious. It's one of our fresh leafy greens within the wider vegetable seeds range. Just getting started? Our vegetable growing guide walks you through the basics of leaf crops.

It thrives in warmth and poor soil where fussier salads struggle — one of the most heat-tolerant greens you can grow.

Why grow purslane

Summer purslane is a sun-lover that keeps producing tender shoots through hot, dry spells — just the thing when lettuces bolt. The fleshy leaves are rich in omega-3s, lovely raw or lightly cooked, and the plants are about as low-maintenance as salads come, fitting right in with our fast-growing vegetables.

Growing purslane from seed

Sow from late spring once the soil has warmed, scattering the fine seed thinly onto the surface and barely covering it. Pick shoots regularly to keep fresh growth coming, and it'll crop all summer with minimal fuss. The sowing calendar shows the windows, and our germination guide helps with the tiny seed.

It grows happily in a pot or window box of free-draining compost in full sun.

What does purslane taste like?
Fresh and slightly lemony with a juicy, succulent crunch. The fleshy leaves and stems are both edible, raw or lightly cooked. Is purslane good for you?
Yes — it's one of the richest plant sources of omega-3 fatty acids and also provides vitamin C and antioxidants. Does purslane tolerate heat and poor soil?
Very well. It's a heat-loving plant that keeps producing tender shoots through hot, dry spells and copes with lean, free-draining soil. When should I sow purslane?
Sow from late spring once the soil has warmed, as it needs warmth to germinate well. Successional sowings give a steady summer supply.
