    No idea what this is, it was given to me last year and I was told it was a 'water' plant. Well the only 'water' it got was a lot of rain (and melted snow :redface: ) because it remained all winter in the bag I brought it home in (yes, yes, shame on me :nonofinger: )

    But, I'd like to give it a permanent home and I need to ID it and seek advice please. It is a small plant.

          Cor, I rescued some of that stuff out of the skip at my local Aldi a few weeks ago (tip - always keep a stick with a hook on the end in your car and park next to garden centre skips).

          Mrs Scrungee told me it was 'Creeping Jenny' (so we could tell people what it was when selling it on):
