Hah! thank you. We have garlic, then. It's growing in the near-dark, too, and totally a volunteer. Weird, but I'm not complaining.
I just stuck some vinca in that patch where they are - hope they get along together.
Primroses are a great idea if I can find some that will handle the climate. Everyone around here uses bleeding hearts so I'm trying to avoid them, out of perversity. Violets are a little tender for our weather but I'll look out for them, because I love them so much. Orchid-ish would be lovely but again I don't know about the climate. And I just put in some lily of the valley, at least the tubers -- my fingers are crossed that it will do all right here and spread. Or course a raccoon may have gotten it already, that happens a lot ...
I don't think I've ever seen wild rue anemone. It sounds cool! Rue, the herb, is one of my favorite plants ever -- so pretty and distinctive, and so hardy, for an herb.
