Candytuft or weed


I seeded a bed with candytuft in September and I thought what was growing was candytuft however I am beginning to think they may be weeds. The foliage has serrated leaves and in all the photos on the internet they have elongated plain leaves. I hope this is not the case. Any help would be appreciated

If the little flower buds look like they might be yellow, its a weed but I can't remember the name. I reckon Nut will know it.
That isn't candytuft but you will need someone else to tell you what it is.
Sorry
I wouldn't whip them out til you know what they are though. Well grown plants, nicely spaced, maybe you sowed something else instead
Or is it just me that does that
In the sticks near Peterborough
Did you one of the daisy family instead carnsie? It looks like one of the shasta daisies.
I do that Nut
They look familiar but I can't put a name to them - I certainly wouldn't pull them out until you know what they are.
Something keeps saying 'daisy' to me - Shasta - something along those lines ........... but I'm probably wrong

Oh Dave, didn't see you there - I started the post and then got distracted by a cuppa

Could it be a Senecio?
Leucanthemum? Or is that the same as shasta?
I may well have sown something else I honestly don't know it seems really odd that they have only sprouted exactly where I put the seeds. perhaps I have sown something else. Thanks for the replys I'll leave them for now and see what they look like when they flower
Looks like wild rocket to me, try a tiny bit off leaf
