OK, I'm a little late on this one. Black Cohosh. I planted a seedling about 3 years ago and after much struggling, it is now about 2' tall and sent up it's first stalks of flowers.
I'm a woman, a Witch, a mother, a grandmother, an eco-feminist, a gardener, a reader, a writer, and a priestess of the Great Mother Earth. Hecate appears in the
Homeric Ode to Demeter, which tells of Hades who caught Persophone
"up reluctant on his golden car and bare her away lamenting. . . . But no one, either of the deathless gods or of mortal men, heard her voice, nor yet the olive-trees bearing rich fruit: only tenderhearted Hecate, bright-coiffed, the daughter of Persaeus, heard the girl from her cave . . . ."

Nothing. My Basil got black-frost-nipped, as did the Squash. But both will recover, I think, with the sacrifice of some leaves.
Love,
