Nasty weed called sandwort. I am having trouble with this stow-away in my own garden as it hitch hikes on potted plants from the nursery. Try smothering it with a mulch or spraying with Round Up. At least it stays low and won't shade out the other plants. Keep growing - but not sandwort, Marianne Binetti
