Ground over with beautiful pink variegation, gets a nominal white flower, but it's the pink and green coloring that makes it unique

It might be Houttuynia cordata 'Chameleon.'

i HAVE SEEN THIS AND SUSPECT IT IS EPIMEDIUM I found it in the Western Garden Book. There are several types.

Hope this is it

I'm thinking Houttuynia cordata ''Chameleon' too. We've had it in our perennial gardens for many years, and it looks like that.

That is definitely the variegated form of Houttuynia cordata.

Beware of its insidious characteristics. Once set free, you will never be rid of it.
