Sharp-Toothed Cinquefoil, Potentilla arguta
Yet another resident of Lucia Falls County Park in SW Washington, this thornless member of the Rose family is not commonly found West of the Cascades. I found quite a few growing in a sunny, rocky area with very little soil.

Enchanter's Nightshade, Circaea alpina
I have no idea why, but this plant decided to show up on our property in SW Washington 2 years ago and now there are hundreds. It is a small understory plant that can form a dense community on the forest floor.
