Default Pin Cushion groundcover...can you help me find out more?

I just picked up a fantastic little plant at the grocery store, in all
my years haunting local nurseries and poring over seed and plant
catalogs I've never seen anything like it. Unfortunately, the tag
doesn't give a great deal of information, only the name "Pin Cushion"
and the fact that it's a shade tolerant ground cover. It's not a
Scabiosa (Scabious?) it looks for all the world like Baby's Tears
covered with tiny, shiny orange berries. There are also varieties with
yellow or white berries.

Can anyone here tell me the scientific name for it or give me any advice
about growing it? It's a fabulous little plant and I want it to succeed
in my garden.

Thanks for your time
