About the genus · Gibbaeum
Gibbaeum is a genus of about 17 species of small succulent plants of the family Aizoaceae, indigenous to the Little Karoo region of South Africa. The name "Gibbaeum" comes from the Latin gibbosus (hunchback)
Text from Wikipedia, “Gibbaeum”, CC BY-SA 4.0, quoted as written.
Also known as Mesembryanthemum hortenseae (N.E.Br.) Hort.; Mesembryanthemum hortenseae (N.E.Br.) N.E.Br.; Muiria hortenseae N.E.Br.
Cultivation
Grouped as a cactus or succulent by the genus Gibbaeum, which is reliably one kind of plant (archetype table). The table holds no figure for this group, which spans too much for one minimum, and no habitat climate is derived yet; no cold floor is given, and no prose comes from the table.
