Seedling identification

5 replies

Good evening all, I'm looking for some assistance with seedlings identification please.

I (well my 6yo hence potential spread of seeds) planted:
Californian poppy
Sweet William
Erigeron
Two opposite pairs of cells of each.

The CP seedlings look nothing like the tray I planted myself. Mine have "carroty" leaves.

The SW seedlings are nothing like the SW seedlings that have self-sown in the garden.

There are a number of different leaf shapes here, but are they mainly all erigeron, and if so, should I plant them (I've read a few threads regretting doing so)?

Last pic could be Sweet William. Nothing there says “Californian Poppy” to me

Carroty leaves are Californian poppy. I have some in my garden.
Look how similar to carrot they are here.

Oh sorry, I misread.

Definitely agree that nothing is CP.

I'll grow what I have on a bit longer...
