This Lysimachia has really quirky flowers, very unusual and very pretty.

Yes - I agree - but it's like other members of the family - it walks!

Is this nicknamed the Goosehead plant?

It's coy.

Yes, Gg - it is - or 'goose neck' maybe? So different from the others in its family!

if any walks out of the border you can send it in my direction :o) I have never managed to get it to even get a toe hold in the garden.

I will anyway, as soon as I cut it back - then I can get a root going for you. It's in shade for at least half the day, so it should suit you.
