Could anyone tell me please what these seedling are?
I potted them up in the autumn as they were just coming through but not similar to any plant growing round them...

my first thought is a type of campanula. But I may well be wrong.

Hi Sbg....mmm....I'm not sure they are, I do have campanulas, but non with a leaf like these....these are quite fleshy...

I THINK IT MIGHT BE MIMULUS (MONKEY FACE)

Thanks for that Gaz....I google it and see. Don't know how they would be in my garden...I like mimulus...I hope they are! I looked at Nicotiana last night....

Yes, very similar, you could be right.... I'll pot them up separately and see how they come on....thank you for that..

I thought Mimulus too! But unlikely if you don’t have any Janey.

No I haven't Karen, but a friend across from me had them in her window boxes last summer... I'm wondering if a bird has brought seeds over somehow.. The clump in the pot is just how I dug it out of the garden! I wonder if they're from a dead flower head....

Ah...could be. I hope they are...Mimulus are so pretty!
