Cette plante ( ficoïde glaciale ? plante de glace ? plante crystalline ?) vient d’Afrique du Sud. Les feuilles sont comestibles et naturellement salees. Elles sont recouvertes de ces petites perles transparentes qui ressemblent a du givre.
Au Japon, on les trouve vendues comme “puttina” prononcer プッチーナ, “ice plant”, “queen’s vegetable”.
Les voici sur des toasts (de peau de ravioli chinois) avec du fromage frais, du 4 poivres et des grains d’anis.

I don’t know where you live. In Japan, they sell it with other greens in many places (department stores, markets, supermarket, veggie stores), In other countries, I have no idea, but you should check websites that sell seeds.
Thanks for your visit,
