Can anyone please let me know what is growing in my pot in the image, they were meant to be flowering cactus and that clearly is not, I am not a gardener in any shape or form, just fancied growing cactus from seed.

Any help would be great.

    It's def not a cactus :)

    It could be almost anything, but the leaves look a bit like Eschscholzia

    They have that blue grey hint like Eschscholzia,  but not quite feathery or divided enough for californica. the one we usually get?

    Sorry... :D to mark8805

    Are there others that do look right, is this a stray or first to germinate?
    Sometimes an odd rogue gets in and comes up first.

    Try crushing a bit of leaf and see if it smells of anything - it could be some sort of herb possibly

    Common fumitory - Fumaria officinalis?

    They look like Common Fumitory, Fumaria Officinalis to me.
