    Top one looks like a dandelion ... the other is possibly a tree seedling of some sort? 

    I’d weed them both out.

    I planted Gypsophila for the first time and was hoping one of them my be that. Is it still worth waiting for the Gypsophila?

    I've not grown Gypsophila from seed, but I know @WonkyWomble has ... maybe hold on until she  or someone else who's grown it from seed has had a chance to look?

    Do you mean you've sown seed in the pots? I'd think they would have difficulty getting through that gravel.
    The others are weeds as described, so need removing.

    Not seeds. I bought what looked like bare roots and planted those in the spring.

    Ah, well neither of those seedlings are what you're waiting for ...

    Definitely not gypsophila. They would have been showing by now if they'd survived.

    Don't be discouraged, mine failed 2 years ago,  I think I was impatient and sowed the seed too early.  You can buy little pots of it from nurseries and divide it up.
