    They don't look like pansy leaves to me - sadly I've no idea what they are!
    March is the new winter.

      Look like Begonias to me. Then again I'm not very good with flowers, I don't think they are pansies though.

            Okay, you sowed a packet of pansy seed but the seedlings don't look like pansies.
            Next question, did you sow them into new compost or is it old compost/soil that may contain weed seeds? Meaning that you may have a seed tray full of "weeds" rather than pansies.
            They remind me of a wild flower leaf but I haven't quite worked out which one yet!

              The leaves look like Marsh Marigold. I used to have some in my garden.



              Perhaps they are related.

                      We bought the seed and they were sown in new compost in modul , and ever one germinated, we then put them in hanging baskets and hung them up but as time went by we began to wonder what they were as no flower had appeared , today we took them out of the hanging baskets and planted them in the garden. they had filled the hanging basket with roots , so what ever they are they do well. a fortnight ago we sew some more they are about an inch high and so we will wait untill they grow and see if they come the same,
                      as I said they are Giant Swss pansy.
                      thanks again for your interest

                        The odds are that they are Giant Swiss Pansies then! Show us some photos when they flower just to settle our curiosity!

                            It'll be really interesting to see what flower they produce GW. I'd have said some form of geranium, but obviously would have been wrong. I like a surprise and you'll definitely get one there!
