Gunniopsis rodwayi

A small annual succulent herb, 1 to 20 cm tall and upright or sprawling, that grows around salt lakes and saline flats in inland Western Australia. It lives one season: it germinates after the cool-season rains, flowers in spring and dies as summer heat arrives, so grow it from seed each year in full sun and a sandy, slightly saline mix.
