| I have a really low grow groundcover between my stepping stones. I'm trying to ID.
The leaves look like moneywort, but the flower is really tiny(2-3mm), and it's blueish white, not yellow. The tiny flower has 4 pedals, looks like tiny veronica. Can you guys help me?

| Almost looks like common chickweed. Do you have a better closeup of the flowers? |

| OK, did some further research and I am pretty sure it is thyme-leafed speedwell (Veronica serpyllifolia). So, you were right in your suspicion that this is a member of the veronica genus. Check out the link below as well as the wikipedia entry: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veronica_serpyllifolia |
