It's the annual 'livingstone daisy' ( I thought the others were
perennials: am I wrong?)

They're all perennial, aren't they, given a warm enough winter?

I don't think so. At any rate, mine flowered, went to seed, and died
while
it was still warm.

A quick search turns up
http://www.msue.msu.edu/msue/imp/modzz/00000543.html which says annual.

According to the RHS Encyclopedia, all the Mesembryanthemums are now shifted
into a genus "Dorotheanthus", and they are all annuals.
