Thank you Atanas for your help.

Well then it's a spot mutation. I would invite you into my mission for the mutants, but it's not global yet. :)
I think you didn't type the name correctly, check it out. :)

All of the other flowers have only three petals. Also some of the flowers are sideways.

Well don't worry for that, sometimes blossoms have more petals than they should. If all the flowers have more petals then it will be more interesting because you would be owner of semi-double clone of this variety.

Yes Atanas...Except that Strawberry Saxifrage has three pink and red leaf like petals on top, and this has four.

What fabulous markings! I shall be looking a lot more closely at the flowers on ground cover/rockery plants in future

Can't be 100% sure if it's the right variety without the leaves, but depending on the color of the spike it must be it.
