Beginner Gardening: Anyone know what plant this is?, 1 by lydgriffin

I got this plant at the local farmer's market weeks ago. I know I was told what is was but of course I can't recall that now. It was originally planted in an area that only gets the early morning sun, however that proved too much for the poor thing and it would droop. I moved it to a sheltered area and it is doing very well although it does not like even the bit of sun that still falls on it. Anyone know what this is?

Thanks,
