Sesuvium is a genus of succulent flowering plants in the family Aizoaceae. They are native to warm temperate and subtropical regions of the Americas, Africa, and the Arabian Peninsula. The plants have a sprawling habit, with fleshy, succulent leaves and stems that grow up to 1.5 meters (5 feet) in height. Sesuvium plants are drought tolerant and can survive in saline or alkaline soils. They make excellent ground covers, and can also be used in rock gardens, as borders, and in containers.
