Sounds like an experience with Hollyhocks I've been dealing with in one area. They seeded themselves thickly, and once that taproot has established they're a real bugger to dig out too. Some had grown right up next to other plants, where I had to dig the desirable plant up along with the Hollyhock and carefully pry them apart.
Well, along with the first day of spring, a bunch of my Daffodils decided to open at once! I looked out the window this morning to see yellow patches all over :-). The last couple of days have been warm and sunny, and I've had to work from daylight to dark, so I'm anxious to get out and check the jugs- I'm sure several more have sprouted. While doing a quick glance before heading out yesterday I noticed more Digitalis, Snapdragons, and a couple of others I can't recall at the moment had germinated.
