Bulbs coming up through lawn? To Weed or not to Weed?!

Hello! Newcomer here to the forum and to gardening 🙂

I moved into my first house with a garden back in August last year. It needs some love which I've already started to do by planting a few evergreen shrubs and some spring flowering bulbs.

Today I noticed quite a few sprouts coming out of the grass. I'm not sure if they are weeds I should be getting rid of or if they are naturalised bulbs which will flower later. If anyone could help ID them or offer some advice on what I should do with them I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks!

Hi Nacho 88,

No worries there, just sit back and watch your “flowers” grow ?

Bob

Great thanks Bob! Excited to see what flowers they are!
