It reminds me a bit of Portulaca grandiflora which I plant every year, it reminds me of Northern California.... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portulaca_grandiflora
They are World famous for Botanical Garden plants... http://www.flowersofindia.in/catalog/slides/Golden%20Ice%20Plant.html Sourced from South Africa.
That's pretty cool looking stuff! According to the link it is actually an evergreen.
