Nursery contributed plant descriptions

A quick growing, evergreen, succulent groundcover. The sinuous, fleshy stems, densely clothed in soft, needle-like leaves, form a thick, bright yellow carpet over the ground. In spring branched stems of small yellow flowers are borne, after which the whole plant should be cut back hard. An excellent plant for providing solid colour all year round
