Or a less desirable weed :-)

    No. Don't know what they are though😊

    They look a bit like annual poppies. Hard to tell at that stage though.

    They look like Iceland poppies to me. Perhaps let them grow until you're sure?

    My first thought was poppies too. Wait and see ...

    That matches with annual poppies of some sort - most of them are prolific self-seeders.
