Was concerned about it spreading. Apparently, has no vine properties, or
major rootage. Just want to know what it is now. Interspersed with St.
Augustine in some locations near the house.

Seems to be what its called. Appears easy to pull up from moist soil if I
can work my fingers deep enough in the St. Augustine next to it. Not a
whole lot there, primarily scattered. Knock it out in 1/2 hour easy.

Went to the accompanying weblink:

Had alot of Purslane in spring. I pulled it up. A little Pigweed here and
there. Think all due to sandy loam that I had brought in late winter. None
of these 3 are naturally occurring in my area that I've seen. Nightshade
is, but is not in my yard. Live NW of Wimberley, TX.
