    Hi

    I have a green plant in most flowerbeds that seems to take over the garden flowerbeds each year. Can anyone tell me what it is? I not sure if it is a weed


    Thanks

    All I can see are blind daffodils. Those bulbs need thinning out.

    There does seem to be a random white tulip?

    It's called a leg-pull. Mostly harmless but generally annoying.

    Hard to say from the photograph but my first thought were those were Spanish Bluebells. If so they are a weed (imo).

    From what the OP says about them taking over then I say that helps confirm the are Spanish Bluebells or possibly even our native Bluebell which can become a weed in flower beds.

    Wake me up when it's all over.

    Thanks. I'm leaning towards the blind daffodil answer. Will probably wait until next year ( when they flower again ) to thin so I don't pull flowing ones


    Thanks

    Blind daffs tend to stay that way. You might get the odd one towards edge of the group flowering but a lot of the reason they don't flower is that the bulbs don't have anymore room to develop. If you dig them up when they have died down and replant it will still be another couple of years before they get back going again.

    Wake me up when it's all over.
