Sarcozona bicarinata
A low, spreading perennial succulent in the ice-plant family, endemic to South Australia, with fleshy, keeled leaves and pink pigface-style flowers. It grows on open coastal and near-coastal sands and limestone in a Mediterranean climate, so it wants full sun, a cool wet winter and a dry summer.
Where it grows wild
Open sandy and calcareous soils on coastal dunes, limestone cliff tops and saline flats near the coast, among low shrubland. Detail generalised from the genus; species-specific notes are thin.
Lowland: recorded at 60–90 m, though most sites are near sea level.
