This spring I planted a bed of lilies. Nothing else.

A year and a half ago, the spot that they're on was trying to be part of
the lawn, but was failing. It was mostly dandelions. I used Round-up on
the weeds, and a week later after they withered, I scalped all the grass
and weeds, covered with newspaper, and a good 3" of bark mulch.

When I dug the area up for the lilies, the newspaper was about 75%
decomposed, but the soil was clay. I added some compost, and tilled it
in. I suspect that my interloper seed was in the compost. But what is
it?
