These flowers have grown on the side of my mother's house every year, I even remember them from when I was growing up. I just never heard anyone say the name of them. I'm completely clueless. Thanks to everyone that reads or replies.

Can Bulbs be weeds?
Mine didnt take over anything, actually I was wondering where they were, thought a squirrel took them or somethin'.

I think anything that is very invasive can be a "weed" to the gardener. Like a weed is .........

Yucca is invasive for me LOL. It was here when we moved here and there is just more and more of the dang things every year. The bad part is if you dont get every little piece of root, then they will be back the next year.

Society garlic is another that can be really invasive. Found out the hard way. I don't know if Vinca (the vine) has been mentioned but it is horrible!!!!!

The previous owners planted Bishop's Weed (Aegopodium podagraria) in the 1970's. It is impossible to eradicate.
