You won;t believe ( I KNOW who taught you about this... after Joe stuck a knife in his leg) but we (Mom & I) saw this being sold in a nursery two years ago.
It is So TOUGH to find out here. Dont' know if its the climate or if chemicals have eradicated it completely, but it is NOT a regular lawn weed here. I could walk five or so blocks before I found any, and sometimes not even then. Can't exactly order seed from a catalog!

That stuff grows like crazy here in Northwest Tenn. It's all in my field behind the house and in the yard. Interesting links. Believe I've learnt more since being on here than I can remember. It's almost like on line college.

These darn things would grow all over my dad's gravel driveway and I couldn't mow them so had to pull them by hand!

Justa git back on track, this dam weed is worthy of some contemplatin'! When HB furst tol me bout it I never paid much mind. Reckon I don't recall furst time I used't, but I swear at't......., I mean I swear BY 't now! Got relief frum fish hooks'n fins, scrapes, cuts (includin' them aggervatin paper cuts), cracked cutickels, an broke open skin frum concrete pizenin'! Good stuff! Even iffen I use salve of one kinder nuther, I poultice-up a little with that weed first.
