Must’ve bought this some time - but haven’t seen it for several years. Any ideas, please?

That's a new one on me. I just tried the new RHS app to identify, it offered me a few choices and I think it's Lobelia olicophylla.

So it is!
Thanks Martin.
Definitely don’t remember ever buying something called that - wonder where it came from!

Apparently it has a LOT of alternative names. Maybe you bought something called Lysipomia, Hypsela or Pratia...

I may have asked about this weird thing before - if so, apologies.
In any case I can’t remember if it’s a plant or a weed.

Its a Navelwort/Umbilicus rupestris.

I love how the Latin name matches the common name and the shape of the leaf.
