Trouble is that it is so fleshy that it can't just be left lying on the ground to die -- it easily survives long enough to reroot. When my Dad was visiting he started raving about "how wonderful it is in salads", "how healthy it is to eat", etc. Me, I think it tastes a lot like leaves... Needless to say he was "strongly encouraged" to harvest lots and lots of Purslane :-) I have a similar problem with Purslane.
