Herb for ID : 21102012 : RV 2: Please help me to ID this very small, ground hugging succulent herb……found it growing in sandy soil, in the same area of Tal Chappar wildlife sanctuary of Churu district of Rajasthan. On the suggestion of the local person, we ate the succulent parts of the plant & it tasted quite salty.

Suaeda maritima I hope
