    Great pictures. Sorry I can't ID it, but I do think it is a very nice plant.

    I looked up this as the portulaca pizazz series, but I think the foliage is too large for portulaca. Did you look down inside the plant to see if there was a tag down in the soil? sometimes they get "lost" in the foliage.

    I've got it now ... Saw the exact hanging basket at the greenhouse today so I stopped and jotted down the name on the tag! It's Lysimachia 'Walkabout sunset' :)

    Good thinking Netty. I haven't seen it before and wasn't sure what family even belonged to.

    Thank you so much, Netty. My computer has been down and have just found your message. Without your help I don't think I would ever have identified this plant. Mine is not variegated but is so pretty. I'll probably look for a variegated plant now.

    It's very pretty! I'd be interested in how it does as a hanging plant. The Carolina wren won't let me have hanging plants -they take over! Very pushy birds!
