Purslane Family
Plants arise from bulbs with flower stalks to 6 inches tall. One pair of opposite, grass like leaves occur about halfway up the stem. A single, strap-like leafe up to 7 inches long is produced at the base. Not all plants flower in a year. Their single leaf identifies their presence.
Flowers, usually less than 1/2 inch across, vary from white to pink, with distinctive darker pink veins running the length of the 5 petals.
