    Hi,

    Can anyone help me by identifying this? They appear to pull out very easily with no roots whatsoever but I keep finding them all over my beds. Is it something being dropped by birds or what?

    Just guessing, but possibly sycamore seedlings.

    Remove them IMMEDIATELY, they can gain a hold quickly and put down strong roots.
