What have I grown?!

This plant is from a cutting but I can’t remember where I got it from! 🙄
I’m good @ getting cuttings going but very bad @ labelling 😏
please can anyone tell me what it is.

    Dorotheanthus bellidiformis (aka Livingstone daisy), probably variety 'Mezoo Trailing Red'.
    They used to be called Mesembryanthemum.  The new one's not much of an improvement is it?! ;)

    Here I go again with succulents again @Paul B3 😂
  • They're 'at it' all the time these days!  I expect the relative ease pthey can compare genes these days is the driving force - lots of plants are now in completely different groups.  The phylogenetic tree is undergoing a serious bit of pruning, it seems! :D

  • Thanks a lot everyone, I like the succulent leaves, nice green too,but yes Bob the flowers are not much to write home about!
  • I meant the new name's not much of an improvement - I think the flowers are lovely and will get a bit bigger than in your photo. :)

  • haha, well it would be nice if they did because I actually really like its growing habit.
     I have just googled it & saw pics which looked like another plant I have which I thought was different to the first one I posted. Are they the same.
    Cheers
