Thanks Brian. I saw it in the garden of a B&B I stayed in last night. I was up at 5am and should have aquired a cutting or three

I had it but lost it (too dry I think where I had it). Where I got it from it spread by stolons very enthusiastically throughout a bank (of the garden variety, not monetary variety.... just in case Cliff or others were going to comment.
).
