Hi Elizabeth,
Thanx for your question.  Thanx for the pic too.  It looks like a hardy ice plant (Delosperma cooperi).  Here are some images.

Plant is originally from South Africa.  Hardy from zones 5-9.  Requires well drained soil.  Tolerates heat and drought.  Average soil requirements.  Full sun for best results.
More info from NC State University.
