Mesembryanthemum crystallinum
I know that crystalline ice plant is an invasive plant at Batiquitos Lagoon, CA, but it sure is pretty.
glad you could share this one, i heard its invasive too but its still interesting!
Membranes. Looks like dew drops and when you touch it, the drops are solid but clear. Very interesting plant. and very low to the ground and tiny. Likes sandy areas in the salt marsh.
How come it has this appearance? is it really water drops? or like membranes?
