Heres someone succulent id like to introduce, called rather unceremoniously 'pigface'. Probably because of the snoutish shape of her fruit, which turn red when ripe. You pick em, then squeeze the inner juicy part of the fruit out of the skin n into your mouth. Tastes a bit like kiwi fruit, sometimes with natural ocean spray salt added. Not sure on botanical name, but shes a rambling groundcover, with succulent stems running along the sand. Handy for a snack at the beach. Good tucka!
Carprobrotus rossii...her formal name.
