All of the perennials Jennifer mentioned. I will also add a Campanula Urtificola. in spite of religeous deadheading it spreads like mad.
I have records that go back to '09 and I believe it was planted the year before. Bluestone no longer carries it.

This corner was also planted with Buggy Crazy lilies. In frustration in April last year I doused the area with a weed killer. The dread plants were the only thing showing. Well weed killer killed everything including lilies .
Guess what? IT'S back ,just a few but I pull'em when I sees 'em.
I have a whole new garden there now.

I also need to add Anemone Sylvestris. If you need a plant to spread fast and you dont care where it goes. This is a good candidate. It drove me nuts after the third year.
