Ficaria 'Brazen Hussy' has not been excessively invasive here and today looks quite interesting surrounding a "black" single Helleborus x hybridus. However, this -- and even the double ficarias, which one would hope might be sterile -- are quite capable of self-sowing back to the typical form. A bright yellow double here as done that, but on the other hand, I don't see typical seedlings near 'Double Mud'. Within reason I'm an enthusiast of Ranunculaceae (common buttercups would be without reason), especially the smaller Anemone species. The difficulty of growing many of them from seed, which in some species has brief viability, is an obstacle. Yet it's always worth a try, and last year I got Trollius hondoensis from the NARGS leftovers. It hasn't reappeared in the pot yet, though.

I just went out to see how far it has spread - a sort-of square area 1.5 metres on each side.
