In June of 2004 we saw these plants without flowers on the cliffs of Guernsey. They were all hardly more than 40 cm tall and looked like they'd all been combed into a 1960s Beatle haircut. In Spring of 2005 they were all in full flower and some were so prostrate that they clung to the ground like a carpet. This is a spectacular plant and unlike so many it can compete with the Carpobrotus edulis which is a smothering weed in these parts.
