One of my favourite plants, I think you will find it is Houttuynia cordata 'Chameleon'. Yours looks very happy :-)

Chris this plant loves water too........so if you have a wet spot where you can't plant anything this one will work and fill the spot in quickly. Or place a pot of it in a watergarden. Don't plant this directly in a bog or it'll take over the whole bog. It also grows in regular soil.

Yes it does sorta look like a strawberry flower Jacque, but it belongs to the Chameleon.

You can grow it as a groundcover also, it's alot more drought tolerant than the labels suggest. You are going to love it either way, the more sun it gets the more red it becomes, but it's still beautiful without the red, when growing in the shade.
