I don't know about seeds...but all you need is some squirrels.  As a child,
crocus would pop up anywhere and everywhere in our yard thanks to the
tireless gardening efforts of the local squirrels.  There are yards near my
current whereabouts that are practically crocus fields right now, and I
seriously doubt it to be the work of human gardeners.  ;-)
