Looks like a running Periwinkle, to see pictures, go to "picture of running periwinkle".
Good luck.
Could it be dichondra? Here is a description and a link to more information. Dichondra has a prostrate or creeping growth habit with circular leaves and entire margins. It grows very close to the ground, (usually not over 2 inches tall) and is a warm season ground cover. It has broad, almost circular leaves (looks similar to clover) and when mown low establishes a thick dense carpet look. When dichondra was first noticed, it was thought to be a weed, now it is used in many ground cover situations where normal grasses may not do as well.
It's European ginger. It's a groundcover that grows wild in many places. It can become extremely invasive.
I agree with Perfume and Powder, it is European Ginger.
