Sesuvium trianthemoides
A rare, small succulent sea-purslane known only from Texas, with very few wild records. Treat it as a sun-loving, short-lived succulent herb of open, sandy or saline ground: strong light, warm summers, sharp drainage and a drier, cooler winter.
Where it grows wild
Little is published beyond the original description. Like its relatives it grows on open, sparsely vegetated sandy or saline flats with almost no overhead cover, so this is inferred from the genus.
No wild records carry an elevation; the climate point used here sits near 640 m, which is likely higher than where the plant actually grows.
