I recently moved into a house with a tropical type front garden. These plants started popping up a couple weeks ago – are they weeds? Or something the previous owners planted which are sprouting?
If it’s a tropical garden, it could be some sort of lilly or orchid? Will have to wait for someone else to chime in

Lillys, they will flower, look great for a while and spend 3 months looking awful. You could carefully dig them up now and pot them up then stash them away after flowering.

Asiatic Lillies of some description, _Lillium auratum_ or closely related.
Improperly removed by previous owners, the bulb will resprout a few times until it dies. If you want them gone, I’d suggest digging them out or cut to ground level and apply neat glyphosate to the stump promptly.
