I am looking for a name for a ground cover. It has small waxy leaves and yellow flowers. I haven't had any luck finding it at my local gardening stores. I have seen it on a tall brick retaining wall growing in the open spaces. Does anyone have any ideas ?

Could be a type of Sedum.

I wonder if it isn't a type of Creeping Euonymus?
Not sure about the blooms but the leaves sound like it.
Here is a pic I found online-

Creeping Jenny flowers???



What she's describing reminds me of ice plant that I learned to hate when I lived briefly in SoCal. It would be an annual in her zone, according to the little bit of research I did.

Maybe I do remember one small, insignificant bloom last year......

What are you doing to yours, Foz? Singing the Dixie Cups to them??

It could be Creeping Jenny, but the "small waxy leaves" quote makes me think of sedum.
