Definitely looks like another whorl of petals. How did it get in the trough? When I tidy up my seed box from the fridge, I turn all the 'chaffe' into a small trough of soil to see what comes up, nothing unexpected yet.

It either fell, blew or the birds dropped it. I have them all round anyway and as seedlings they're similar to some of my Sisyrinchiums. I've never deadheaded them but I think with the daylilies at the nursery last year I took my eye off the ball Siris.
I do the same with bits that are left from seed pods but into the large pot with Sarcococca ruscifolia outside my door. There are a few things sprouting at the moment, a couple look like rose leaves so that could be birds.

I always thought of this as a bothersome weed because it's everywhere and will take over an vacant lot in no time. I should give it a second look.
