Tecticornia verrrucosa is a species of plant that is succulent and halophyte (salt tolerant).

[2] It is an annual or short-lived perennial which grows to 40 cm high, which branches at the occasionally woody base.

The inflorescence is a set of opposite and decussate lateral sessile spikes, at right angles to the branch.

[3] It grows on coastal mud flats, slightly saline clay pans, and inland freshwater.
