The long, narrow, 3-angled to semi-cylindrical, fleshy, tufted, often dark-spotted leaves dry up after flowering, but persist after the solitary, long-stalked, daisy-like yellow flowers have faded. Green berries contain spherical, slightly keeled, smooth seeds. In frost-prone areas, grow in a temperate greenhouse. In warm, dry climates, they are suitable for growing outdoors in a desert garden.
