In my book, they aren't weeds, they're salad greens. The oxalis is a biting little thing that brightens up a salad - especially if you're Irish. The purslane is good raw or cooked. When cooked it acts like okra and adds that gooey texture. Search for purslane recipe and you'll find hundreds of ways to eat this one. Jim [and have your soil tested and balance the nutrients and you'll probably get rid of both as they like 'poor' soil] Thank you. After a Google I know what herbicides are most likely to work on them. Looks like the Oxalis (a.k.a. Wood Sorrel) might be the most difficult of the two. -- Tony Sivori Due to spam, I'm filtering all Google Groups posters. |
