Description
I'm not sure what species this is, but possibly it is Delosperma cooperi (syn. Mesembryanthemum cooperi). I found it at Boyce-Thompson Arboretum, near Globe, Arizona, USA. Ice Plants are succulents with fleshy leaves. They store water in their leaves, so they can survive in times of drought.
