Smooth, velvety, fleshy leaves are produced in pairs, either entirely free or partially joined along most of their length. The daisy-like, solitary, mainly stalked flowers, borne in summer, are followed by ovoid green fruits, which contain pale brown seeds. In frost-prone areas, grow in a temperate greenhouse. In warm, dry climates, use in a border or raised bed.
