stho002 is correct this is Creeping Mallow Modiola caroliniana also called Carolina bristlemallow
That's the best part, Hema! :-)))
I agree Stho. It is funny how interested you become in a spotting when you make a suggestion of some kind.
But the leaves look more like a mallow.The leaves of a pimpernal are different. Stho might be correct.
No, the leaves are wrong!
scarlet pimpernal?
I'm interested, too, Phantom2002. I've got a plant like this in my collection, but I've never seen it bloom ... stho002's suggestion looks promising and I'm close enough that what's in bloom there may be in bloom here, so I'm going to check. It's very small, right?
Creeping mallow?
