I planted mache 2 years ago, and it came up by itself last year and this year. It doesn't emerge until the rains start around November. I added 6 inches of compost to the bed where it normally appears, so it's only on the edges there, but it migrates each year anyway.

I've also had claytonia (miner's lettuce) in my garden, which is native to California. It was a favorite of one of the dobermans -- I'd pick the little round leaves for her. (The other doberman preferred to eat nasturtium leaves and stems on his own.)
