Hey everyone! I'm pretty new to gardening, this is my first year attempting to plant anything and I planted some peony bulbs. I was just wondering why some are sprouting so far away from where I planted them? For instance in the pic I planted at X and I've circled where it decided to pop up. Is this common?

Edit: I must've chosen the wrong creation type for the article cause it's not previewing the image but just click the title, I promise one is there!

Peonies have a bulbous root mass that expands over time. They are not really bulbs, and they are pretty tough.
