Before the wooden fence was installed, there were like 50 blooms in this area; the installers nearly wiped the star flowers out as well as some other bulbs: that was several years ago. I was surprised to see this one, I'd thought they'd been eliminated.

Mickey Mouse - this was once a discarded bulb, thrown out by the garage and subsequently covered w/ other garden debris, it's been coming back now for a couple of years, a near miracle for any but Darwin and species tulips.

Falconette - Thumb of 2016-04-14/jmorth/debed0. Just keeps on coming back...

Thumb of 2016-04-14/jmorth/1c7dd8 I'd guess a species tulip. I do't remember planting it and it's not on my garden map.

Kaydee next to Ice Wings, there used to be several clumps of Kaydee in the garden where they'd been placed after being forced (for years, Kaydee was my favorite daffodil forcer). This appears to be the last of those clumps. There's another Kaydee blooming on the other side of Ice Wings (from the same planting).
Nothing that's been done can ever be changed.
