Spring: the soil warms, the light stretches longer, and suddenly green shoots explode across lawns and garden beds. Some of that growth brings promise. Some of it comes with a plan to take over everything in sight.

Ignore them for a few weeks, and they move from a minor annoyance to a full-blown yard invasion.
