    That looks like some sort of saxifrage, but don't know which one...

    :) Hello goodgreef and welcome to GC.

    I agree with Sussexgardener ... it is indeed Saxifraga urbium aka London Pride. I had it for many years in Bucks and it always gave such a wonderful display.

    Enjoy the forum.
