I think these are bulbs I planted earlier in the year but they may equally be weeds I've carefully tended and nurtured. I'm quite good at growing healthy weeds

The one with spikey leaves could be a plant but i think the others are weeds. Can you remember what bulbs you planted?

I think the spiky one in the background of picture 2 is a lily?
Picture 1 looks like a weed but not sure what!
Foreground of pic 2 - not sure either!

The first one might be aquilegia.

Oh, sorry I realise the spikey one is a Lilly it's the stuff surrounding it I'm not sure of. Also not aquilegia as I have loads of that elsewhere. Could they be anemones - I did buy some of those but I'm not convinced.

Yes it is possibly anemones. I think those are corms so they would have been quite flat & nobbly-looking when planted, like a small dirty stone?

They look like Anemones de Caen op.

The second one is a lily surrounded by what looks like fumitory. Weed/desirable wild flower - your choice! Agree with previous posters that first one is probably anemone, if you have been planting corms/bulbs.

The first one looks like feverfew. Does it have a distinctive smell?
