Please can someone ID these seedlings for me. I'm assuming they are from the wildflowers I had in this patch last year but have now decided to move, so depending on what the seedlings are will move to the new area :)

Thankyou  :):)

    The ones in the bottom photo are Nigella.  I seem to recognise the 1st one but my memory isn't coming up with the goods!
    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Thanks - makes sense had loads of nigella, can't believe how much they've self seeded, guess that's what happens in nature though! I also collected loads of seed, or so I thought.

    I was wondering if the top one was some sort of poppy?

    Maybe the first seedling is a kind of daisy (Asteraceae). If so, it won't take long to bloom.

    Thankyou, hopefully I won't have to wait too little no the. To get a glimpse of what they are :)

    I think the top one is ox eye daisy. Bottom one nigella (or carrots)
