I would say clearly a Saxifraga of some sort. But there are many to choose from... Some pics of other bits of the plant would help to narrow the choice.

Sometimes a smaller picture helps. :) I ordered seed of this once. I wish it had been true instead of the very ordinary mossy sax which eventuated. :'(
