@Driad.....Thanks!
@Bjs.....loves semi-shady/shady position, peaty but well-drained soil and it's hardy.....watch out for slugs/cabbage moss caterpillars......

mine's healthy enough,just not very presentable as it's spent all its time(about 4 years) outside in a pot.

What else?
See who else is growing Asarum europaeum (Asarabacca).
See who else has plants in genus Asarum.
