Sweet little mat-forming creeper, with the slightest blue markings on the tiny white flowers. It also borders on being invasive. We grow it between the paving stones in our side garden, and try to keep it out of the garden beds.

We left this plant behind in our Pennsylvania garden (and wish it well); we don't grow it in Houston. About my plant portraits
