It is a succulent plant, and is also considered an ice plant!!! Very sweet plant with the sweetest of blooms...and I love it's name!!! Unfortunately I watered mine too much, or it did not like the humidity in south Florida, and it died. I was so sad. I miss it still!!!<br />Sounds like yours is thriving!!!
