Photo: Diane Edwardson, February 28, 2013. Despite drought conditions, the northern end of the Red Car Property stays moist in the winter, due to the steep slope & little direct sun. Miner's Lettuce thrives in such conditions. (Click on photo to enlarge.)
According to Cal Flora, Miner's Lettuce is not toxic.
