Dandelion?

Look closer and it appears to be a Carpanthea pomeridiana.

Nothing like a Dandelion or else they would be popping up all over my garden. Not seen any.
Obsessive Crassulaceae lover, especially Aeoniums but also grow, Aloes, Agaves, Haworthias and a select number of Cacti.

Maybe if Danedelions were annual or not hardy, they'd be highly desirable?

Ian, have you planted it out this spring or has it germinated and survived in the garden from self-sown seed? Do the other readers of the Forum realise that it is one of the annual mesembryanthemums?

I raised it (them, I have more than one) in a pot and then planted out. Seems to like the heatwave.
