    Thank you I googled it but the leaves aren't right and the name is unfamiliar. The foliage is soft and it does sometimes go a bit red. It looks a bit domed as I gathered it up together a few years ago and it gave in to the extent that I could remove the bit of string -eventually.

    Not here @simone_in_wiltshire, it behaves well in my dry, sandy soil and I like the fact that it is evergreen, grows in shade and flowers prolifically in spring. I have others elsewhere which help to bind the soil on my bank and keep weeds at bay. A very useful plant for the right soil and place.
