Carpobrotus deliciosus (commonly known as sweet Hottentots fig, perdevy, ghaukum, ghounavy) is a succulent perennial of the family Aizoaceae, native to a strip along the south coast of South Africa.

The flowers of this Carpobrotus ("Sour-fig") species range in colour from purple and pink to white, and these are followed by fruits that are less sour and more pleasant tasting that those of its relatives, hence its name.

The receptacle is distinctively subglobose or "bowl-shaped", and it constricts abruptly at the base, where it meets the pedicel.

[1] It is indigenous to the coastal rocks, dunes and plains along the far southern coast of South Africa.

Its sweet edible fruits are grazed by tortoises and other southern African animals, and are also used locally to make traditional preserves.
