Hi all,
Planted these a good few months ago but unfortunately the packet had got wet and I couldn't read the label. Nothing happened and I gave up and now suddenly they have sprouted. 
However, I have no idea what they are. I know they look like grass but they are planted in very neat rows and also are much sturdier than grass. I have only ever bought one packet of ornamental grass seeds and they are doing very well elsewhere so I know it's not that.
If anyone has any idea I would be very grateful, otherwise it will be a case of wait and see.

I almost said Chives, but it's clearly not,
Triffids?
Irises, any bulb, daylily, crocosmia

I don't think they are any bulb at all because a real close up shows they are flat like blades grass, if bulbs they would be round.
Agapanthus?
Kniphofia?
Dierama?
Waitandseeicus experimentalis

Thank you all, think Dove has the best guess so far.
I think I must have bought them (although sometimes you get a free packet thrown in) and none of the above ring a bell. The seeds must have been quite big as they are all growing in neat rows so obviously managable size.
Can't believe I have been so dipsy over them.
