The flower looks like an Ice plant.
It is called Dianthis. It will spread and get larger each year. The flowers will get a few inches high. Gets better each year. Comes in several colors. I love it. I've plant flowers are larger in diameter.
Supposed to say Ice Plant flowers
It is called an ice plant
I have the ground cover in my garden. It is called the creeping Phlox. They come in different colors and bloom in the Spring.
Phlox has smaller flowers-Ice Plant has (poofy) fuller leaves. Looking at the flower and leaves all together, it looks like Dianthis. Kind of a small carnation. Take your pic to your local nursery to get a for sure answer. Good luck!!
Spelling may be wrong, but it's Portulacca. It will be back each year, and comes in many colors. People used to use it in "rock gardens". My Mom loved it & so do I 🌝
By golly, I think you're correct! I hadn't thought of portulaca-good call, Tracie!!
Dianthus
Creeping flox
not dianthus,portulaca,....The photo could be clearer.not ice plant either they have different foliage. possibly creeping phlox
From the picture it looks like dianthus. If it has a spicy sweet scent then I would definitely say dianthus.
I was thinking portulaca, particularly if the flowers come in several colors. Ice plants' leaves are like short green straws that taper to a close at the top.
creeping dianthus! Makes great ground cover and will come back
I believe it is dianthus. It might have been mowed down and that is why it is so short and not flowering as much as it usually does. Portulaca has a more succulent looking leaf. Creeping phlox has a smaller flower and a finer leaf.
Dianthus smells like carnations.
Thank you all so much! The flower looks exactly like dianthus, but the plant part looks exactly like portulaca. It lso looks exactly like creeping phlox, I'm going to take another picture with my nice camera, thank you all again. You've been more helpful than anyone for this.
Better pic, it's a 20 mega pixel, I can't get any better, lol.
Every time I post a picture it comes out so unclear on this site.
One more
It's also raining, so those pictures are in the rain. The stem looks like a mini carnation when I separate it, they're all twisted together. The flower is bright pink and thin , with a dark inner circle. I haven't smelled them, because it's raining, but I will.
Video of other plants /flowers I need help identifying. The original in question is at the end of the video. I planted the kalanchoe myself. Thanks all
