Do you remember the type of Liliy-of-the-valley you got.
The giant form spreads less speedily.
The common form for me increases very fast in all my soils, dry, moist,
shade, part shade. It does best in moist light sun.
What makes me concerned is that the Hosta you planted did not make it.
It is not easy to kill a Hosta, the LAMIUM do not always take to an area.
The LAMIUM like evenly moist but not wet soils with some filtered sun during
the day.
