The foliage of this plant is very nice, and I thoroughly enjoyed it when I first discovered it in the edge of my woodland. Unfortunately it moved like a green wave to overtake the shade/partial shade garden I have next to the woods. It spreads rigorously via runners, coming up through my ferns and hostas. Flowers are insubstantial. I finally identified it from Dick Young's Kane County Wild Plants & Natural Areas. It may be perfect as a woodland plant if you're not trying to encourage other woodland plants to flourish.
