I saw this photo on the net but with no ID attached to it and I can't work it out. The inflorescence is interesting though. Any ideas?

Hmm, it doesn't look all that succulent - are the leaves fleshy?

Well it only took me four years to work this out :oops: I'm fairly sure this is Heliotropium curassavicum or similar. It likes salty soil so that's probably why it isn't a well known plant.
