Default Plant ID

If anyone can ID this plant I will be very pleased.

Today I visited a garden on NGS, and bought a plant which had no name and I
have no idea what it is.

Sorry, no picture, but; it is a hardy shrub (has stood several winters in
the garden)
the leaves are quite small, rounded
and covered in silvery hair
it has white pea-like flowers,
none at the moment so probably later in summer
grows to about 2ft, and is
clipped back after flowering

but the most unusual feature, is that the leaves are incredibly soft to
touch, and the stems are very pliable too.

I forget whether it is evergreen or not, but would think probably not.

The gardener who sold it has been meaning to look it up for years ;-)

Thanks,
Marina.
