Check for Chamaesyce prostrata ???  Cannot confirm as I cannot see  the details of the floral parts etc. You may also post the habit photo for proper ID.

Dear All
It could be either E. thymifolia or E. prostrata. The differences between them are as follows:
1a. Stems and leaves dark green; fruits acutely keeled on cocci with hairs restricted to the keels only; seeds distinctly 4 or 5-furrowed on facets.
       E. prostrata
1b. Stems and leaves green or reddish tinged; fruits obtusely keeled and evenly appressed hispid  throughout; seeds 2 - 3-furrowed on facets.......
      E. thymifolia
Please check the live plants for the above characteristics. They are not clear in the photographs.
