Hi,
I have seen this plant-weed thing for many years in the same location - what is it?
Thanks  |

Thankyou, JennyS.
Is it a species that is likely to have been deliberately planted, or can it crop up anywhere by itself? |

bright yellow cushions up to a metre across - it tolerates a bit of
salt which is why it thrives there.
