Take a Look: Spurges vs Purslane

While spurges and purslane are not in the same classification, it may be hard to tell them apart by a photo or when you see them out on the street. Here's this guide to distinguish spurges and purslane.

GROUND COVER: Spurges tend to spread out among the ground, while purslane typically grows in clumps, for lack of a better word. However, sometimes it does come along the ground, and it never grows like a tree, so keep your eye out and use the rest of this guide.

MANY COLORS: Spurges come in quite a few varieties, from dark green-pinkish to a light sprout green, while purslane comes in usually one shade of green with a touch of pink-red.

FLESHY LEAVES: Purslane has fleshier, juicier leaves while spurges have flat leaves.

Can you tell the difference between the spurge and purslane in these two observations below?
