Okay, this plant was growing right with my Spirea. Pulled it out and moved
it, keeping it separate for now until I see what it is.

Anyone have a guess at this?

So many things have that sort of ferny leaf, but if it is wild it could be
some variety of turkey corn (corydalis), there being many weedy species as
well as gardened species; if it gets nice flowers you'll know.

Looks a bit like a solomon seal or a false solomon seal.

Those are either from tulip bulb offsets not yet well developed, or from
completely worn-out bulbs.
