Portulaca
Portulaca (/ˌpɔːrtjuːˈleɪkə/,purslane) is the type genus of the flowering plant family Portulacaceae, comprising about 40-100 species found in the tropics and warm temperate regions. They are also known as moss roses.
Common Purslane (Portulaca oleracea) is widely considered an edible plant, and in some areas an invasive type of weed. Some Portulaca species are used as food plants by the larvae of some Lepidoptera species including the Nutmeg (Hadula trifolii).
Purslane can be eaten raw or cooked, and lends itself to stir fry dishes. Some say it has a slight lemon-like taste and mushroom-like texture. It is relatively easy to grow in more northern climates, including the New England area in the United States.

by: Djordje BalasevicPile moje, kako stvari stoje
vreme radi za nas
bas se mislim, sto bi zalud kisli
kad bi mogli ostati kod vas
kisa pada, gde bi isli sada
crni oblaci iznad grada
sta je tu je, sakrijmo se od oluje
Srce lupa kao vojni bubanj
to je opasan znak
imam krizu i uvek kad ste blizu
pada mi na oci mrkli mrak
sad bi mozda ploca dobro dosla
neka muzika davno prosla
Chubby Checker ili neki slican smeker
Ref.
Otkad vas znam
stare slike mi imaju novi ram
otkad vas znam
neke obicne stvari mi cudno zvuce
Bio sam sam
kao niko na svetu, ko niko znam
bio sam sam
ali sve je to bilo odavno, juce jos
Dame biraju
Ove noci mi smo mogli poci
u restoran il' bar
ma, gde bili mi bi nesto pili
to je problem, bas u tom je stvar
sto da krijem, gadan sam kad pijemja se posvadjam, pa se bijem
zato bolje ostanimo tu nas dvoje
