Welcome!

Is that a 4" pot? Is it an outdoor plant? Where are you located?

It looks like an iceplant.

Its a 9cm pot (I live in new Zealand so we use the metric system) not sure what that is in inches. I bought it and it had no label apart from saying it was a succulent. The other two I bought had the genus but this one did not

Carpobrotus?



If that's what it is, be aware the plant is invasive (see warnings on this page).

Carpobrotus - Yes, that's what I was thinking about. They are grown along the coast to stabilize the sand.

Hi & welcome! I wanted it to be an Oscularia, but it doesn't seem to be one.
