    Hi, I am new here and by my user name you can tell I have No Clue about plants. So if one of you can please help identify this one for me I will be truly thankful.

    It grows in well drained Cape Cod sand along my foundation. It grows less than six inches, the leaves are leathery and has drooping flowers. Returns every year and seems to be speading in a straight line. Could have been planted by previous owner 15 plus years ago.

    Thank You

    thank you for posting it - very interesting leaves- and perhaps a bit endangered.

    No, thank you guys for your knowledge. It has been bothering me for a while.

    It is also native to my area which is a good thing.

    That is a lovely little plant. Is it my imagination, or is that vine weevil feeding damage on the foliage?
