Possibly an exotic Crassula or Sedum (Crassulaceae). I could not find any photos on the internet that fitted the leaves in your photo.

Betty, While I had looked at the net, I had not looked at Sedum. I found Sedum acre, which according to Wikipedia, is commonly known as the goldmoss stonecrop,[1] mossy stonecrop,[2] goldmoss sedum, biting stonecrop, and wallpepper, is a perennial flowering plant in the family Crassulaceae. It is native to Europe, but also naturalised in North America, Japan and New Zealand. I will send the photo separately. I think we have a match in terms of flower colour and structure and leaf colour and structure. While there are many Sedums, none match flowers and leafs to the one in the photo that I took. GeoffR

I looked up Crassula on Wikipedia but not Sedum. I only checked images in Google in general. Thanks. Betty
