    Hi Deandra,
    I don't think so. Common purslane (Portulaca oleracea) is an annual plant. So it will grow again from seeds anyway if conditions are good enough (e. g. that it is warm enough in your place for the seeds to germinate and that the plants can get sufficient light).
    BTW: I suppose that your question is off topic here because it has no relation to photography and art. Robert.
