I live in eastern North Carolina. Today I went to a pinic at a country farm. The owner had a beautiful ground cover. Its leaves appeared to be a green succulent. It had small yellow flowers.
When I asked what it is, she said "creeping charlie". It is not creeping charlie based on my research but I don't know what it is.
She said that one just pulls pieces off the plants and lays them in a pot or on the soil and it takes off. She had lots in sunny places but also showed me a large area under a tree in a very shady location.
She offered me some but things got hectic at the end of the gathering and I left without it.
Can anyone identify this plant for me so I can hunt it down??
There are also a couple things that go by the name creeping charlie--there's Glechoma hederacea which is the obnoxious weed, but Plectranthus verticillatus also goes by that name (doesn't fit this description however), and there may be others as well
