Carpobrotus
''Carpobrotus'', commonly known as pigface, ice plant, and Hottentot plant, is a genus of ground-creeping plants with succulent leaves and large daisy-like flowers. The name refers to the edible fruits. It comes from the Ancient Greek ''karpos'' ("fruit") and ''brota'' ("edible"). The genus includes some 12 to 20 accepted species. Most are South African, endemics, but there are at least four Australian species and one South American. ==Distribution and habitat==
Various ''Carpobrotus'' species are invasive introduced species in suitable climates throughout the world. The harm they do is variable, and sometimes hotly debated, when balanced against their value as firebreaks and as food for wildlife.
