pusley

Pusley is a dialectal American term for purslane (Portulaca oleracea), the fleshy-leaved weed common in gardens and disturbed soil across the US. Typically used in rural contexts, especially in the South and Midwest, where the plant is familiar as both a persistent garden pest and an edible green. The register is homey and vernacular — you wouldn't hear it in a botanical lecture, but you might in a kitchen garden conversation. It carries a slight old-fashioned flavour, the word of someone who learned it from their grandmother rather than a field guide.
