This member of the Aizoaceae family was described by Schwantes in 1927.
Found on Reunion Island, growing in grit or well-drained soil with some
water in summer and lots of sun. The flowers are white, and it can be
reproduced
apart from by seed,
by
cuttings as well. I found mine in Tokkerup in 2003.
Seen on IPNI as a Ficoidaceae. Cactus Aventures International and
Rowland and others clams it is a Mesembryanthemaceae.
