Tetragonia implexicoma
(Ice-plant) is a very common native coastal plant. It grows on
both rocky and sandy coasts and may be a scrambling ground cover or
a scramble over coastal shrubs. The leaves are more or less diamond
shaped, are distinctly succulent and glistening on both surfaces.
The flowers are yellow and the fruit is red and succulent. It is
occasionally confused with Rhagodia candolleana, which
however has smooth, glossy upper leaf surfaces.
