I guess this is correct ID.
a persicaria. forms ground cover in these clumps you showed, … unlike the other persicaria, a knotweed you had earlier, this one is more disciplined, not so invasive, nobody seems to have called it a noxious weed, rather loved by people who like rock gardens.
Persicari vaccinifolia.
