identifying the so called south-african dangling plant

well, it turns out to be Australian...
Although according to wiki most of the Carpobrotus family is from South Africa, the one I always mean is from Oz.

Here's an old pic from the one on my balcony, taken in it´s first year when it had 1 flower. Now it´s huge but it has never flowered again. (needless to say I never seen any salty pigface fruits either):




(yes, the flowers are really that huge, the wasp is full-size. )

And below is the story and pic from wiki
