Nursery contributed plant descriptions

For those of you who have been out to the nursery this is the species that is running around our limestone rock garden, we got it from the Czechs years ago, the name was illegible but it is pink flowered and it has been slowly creeping about ever since. Punnett admired it and when we dug his piece, we figured we might as well propagate it. ZONE 5
