    I'm searching for the name of a plant @longk, but for the life of me can't remember what it's called. :scratch: :)

    I know you have these plants so wonder if you can remind me. It's a perennial rockery plant usually seen growing from the side of a bank or wall and usually has bright orange or pink daisy type flowers. Please put me out of my misery! :biggrin:

          Always think of aubretia when I see a plant cascading over a wall.

                      @pete, my apologies dear sir! :) The first response I saw was Nikolaos' because he 'mentioned' me on alert so I overlooked your post.
