Volunteer native succulent popped up in our yard 🥰
we've been slowly killing off our grass/non-natives and planting natives and we did not plant this. Guessing brought in by the wind, birds, or something.
It's called Miner's Lettuce, and correctly guessed as its name implies, it's edible and was used by miners to ward off scurvy. It's similar to spinach! 😁
Definitely need to figure out something that can cohabitate with it, but so excited for a native ground cover that's so lush and bouncy!

Every time I get a new-to-me native that I didn’t plant, I feel like the universe is blessing me by removing something invasive. ☺️
That’s a lot too!
