Trifolium repens ‘Beauty’, also known as Angel Clover.
Probably in too dry a place in the circular shallow trough, would do better in the ground, but then I suspect it might take off!

Ah, so that’s where you have been hiding!

The over ripe fruit in the fruit cage has suddenly been targeted by loads of wasps, I wondered where they were coming from.
Found this wasp nest in the Polycrub yesterday, hidden behind the asparagus which is now a jungle of ferny fronds.
