Situated on the far west coast of Canada, on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Victoria is the capital city of the Province of British Columbia. Its benign climate (the warmest winters in Canada) and placid lifestyle make it a favorite retirement location as well as a popular tourist destination. About 400,000 people live in Victoria and adjacent communities.

Spectacular! It's definitely one of the many "ice plants", but I can't narrow it down any further. A local nurseryman would probably have them in stock if they are now blooming, so you could get the info from the tag. They are native to southern Africa.
First, my apologies for a bit of cut and paste commenting. I have been doing the rounds via Bloglines and looking at all the pictures from my favourite photo blogs, but haven’t been leaving comments. Generally, I try to comment as much as I can (I know how good it is for ‘morale’ to know that someone is out there appreciating them), but after the birth of my second son, I am a bit knackered to think up something witty and insightful on the hop. Thus the resort to Control+C and Control+P!

Aren't they Portulaca?
Or Pig's Face?
Or are they the same thing?
USELaine's got it I think. When I googled ice plant I get some images that are nearly identical to what I have posted.
Thanks.
Delicious looking flowers!
