Field Notes

Description:

Small, very plentiful little plants with hard, segmented stems and succulent-looking leaves at the top of each stalk. These are fairly young, and mature plants can get much larger and more branched. When flowering, they have large, beautiful yellow flowers.

Habitat:

Growing out of lime rock in Coastal salt marsh. These were inland from the water about 1/4 mile, but I believe at high tides or during storms this area likely gets inundated with water because there were some pockets of water and the ground was wet despite not having very recent rain.
