I'm not sure what this plant is but there will be an abundance of the yellow flowers to come. Then, just the greenery. It seems to grow no matter what. I was given the plant by Aunt Catherine and didn't know what else to call it. It is a perennial and never fails to bloom for me. There are more stalks that I didn't show. Anyone know what it is?
Yes, Lysimachia. There is also a variegated form called 'Alexander.' The purple-leaf loosestrife I have makes runners all over the place; I much prefer this type which forms clumps.

Hi, this is Lysimachia punctata. We know it over here as Loosestrife. Its not really a weed, (unless its growing where you dont want it to,!) There are lots of varieties, including a lovely red one and a ground cover one which is often used in hanging baskets, which is known as Creeping Jenny. Remel, UK
