I have what I believe to be a pile of rubble that must have contained corms from an excavation to install a septic bed. They left the rubble in a pile near the edge of the forest and you should see it now... lily of the valley, like quills on a porcupine, coming up and soon to bloom. the scent is just delightful. I've found several plants that travel... LOTV and Mints, and creeping jenny...etc.. that I wanted in a specific location were only happy to remain there for a couple of seasons and then it took off across the yard... following it's nose to a better spot perhaps...but moving with a purpose..away from where I want it. In the city garden I would have had to rip it out...but I have so much room here that I've just let it go! I may regret it.
