        Does cultivated purslane (grandiflora) have the same medicinal & nutritional properties as the wild (oleracea)?  Where can I find answers to this question for other plants as well, or are they always the same? Thank you!

          Those two are very similar. THat’s not always the case with plants in the same genus but in this cqse it is.

          Don't use herbs or combine herbs with medications or use them during lactation or pregnancy without talking with your healthcare provider.
