These synonyms are often used interchangeably since the plant has a wide range of culinary and medicinal uses. Indian lettuce, as its name suggests, was traditionally eaten by Native American tribes as a leafy vegetable.

Winter purslane and spring beauty refer to its ability to grow all year round in cold regions and its bright pink and white flowers that bloom in the spring.
