Love this one in my shady gardens! Pretty yellow flowers. Prefers deep shade in my zone 5 where the summer gets hot.

I only recently began growing this plant (spring 2014). I have heard elsewhere that it self-sows freely and can become invasive. So far, my one small plant is still settling itself.
