They need a fair amount of sun to produce flowers, so I guess this one is happy! Very easy to grow.

It's a jade plant!

I was wondering what that was. Mine sprouted flowers a couple of days ago (same rain event as you, Peggy).

In Palmdale,

They love the sun and mild temperatures. They typically bloom this time of year here in CA.

And they're super easy to grow. You just break a branch off of any jade plant, and stick it in the ground...and it will grow! A friend gave me my first piece, years ago.

If it is, you must be in a warm climate. I've kept jade plants as indoor plants only.
On edit:
I see it has already been identified. I should have read further down on the comments.
