Hi everyone! Could anyone possibly identify these seedlings please? My son has prepared a seed bed and put some wild flower seeds down, however even though they are now coming through, the ground is covered in these seedlings!!! Any clue??

    Look like sunflower seedlings.

    What flowers are in the mix and what was growing there before ... that’ll give us a few clues ... hopefully 🤞

    We’ll probably have to wait a bit longer for a few more clues ... 🌱
