{{stub}}[[File:Trianthema portulacastrum1.jpg|thumb|right|''Trianthema portulacastrum'']]'''Horse purslane''' is an annual, succulent, prostrate or ascending herb, often much-branched, growing up to about 60 cm tall, with a firm taproot. The plant is harvested from the wild for local use. It has a number of medicinal virtues and is sometimes also eaten, though there are conflicting reports on the wisdom of this. The dried plants are sometimes traded for their medicinal qualities.
