When I bought this plant it had a tag on it saying "creeping charlie", but it isn't the invasive weed I know as creeping charlie. Can someone tell me what it really is?
edited to say I mean the varigated plant with yellow flowers

There's another species of Lysimachia that goes by the common name Creeping Jenny, whoever made the tag probably just mixed up Jenny and Charlie! |

My Lysimachia procumbens did not have variegated leaves.

Your plant appears to have light and dark green variegation. It must be a cultivar.
