I was going to recently but my dad visited and by the time I got home from work my entire garden was weeded very nicely - and purslane was gone! But it seems to have sprung up again so I'm going to be more brave next time - thanks for the info!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11139607616813813628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-16298468825159724322015-02-24T20:00:14.706+10:002015-02-24T20:00:14.706+10:00Thanks for sharing this.

I'll have to give it a try next time I notice it growing. <br />The other weed we get a lot of in winter is chickweed. Have you tried that? If so, I'd be interested to read about that.Paolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14472129226320589172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9027191706980748713.post-57888977090494115412015-02-23T22:26:28.175+10:002015-02-23T22:26:28.175+10:00Hello!
