Lily of the Valley and wild ginger are both common shade groundcovers. You can expect these to spread - the LOV perhaps more than you wish :-) Ground ivy, Glechoma species, is considered a weed and will spread or self sow readily into other garden areas and the lawn.

And I'm not sure what you are referring to with fernleaf lavender as there are two species that have this common name - L. multifida and pinnata. Neither will be hardy for you and generally do not succeed very well if attempted to grow as an annual - they take too long to mature and reach flowering size. And like all lavenders, they want full sun and dry, lean growing conditions.

Chicory would also prefer full sun. And be careful where you plant it......this produces a significant tap root and is extremely difficult to move once established. Horseradish is very similar in its growing habits (big root system with long tap root) but is more shade tolerant.

Wintergreen and bearberry (uva ursi) like acid soil and will grow in part shade. They are both evergreen groundcover type plants. Be careful about planting the stinging nettle. It really does sting or hurt if you touch it.
