How would they grow on sand,, not just sandy soil. About 40 M from the sea waves?

They are noted as drought tolerant so in theory they would survive in sandy soils. Straight sand? Probably not.

I've never seen them near salty soils.

Working in a retail nursery, we mostly buy in our stock, however sometimes we grow certain lines on site. I love propagation, I think it taps into my love of order and repetition.
Today I took cuttings of Pig Face or Mesembryanthemum. This plant is a bit of a granny favorite. It really suits areas that prove hard to establish, tolerating poor and dry soils. Their main claim to fame though is the mass of flowers produced in spring.
