I got a pack of mixed wildflowers. I would really like to know what they are going to be so I know where abouts to plant them (lots of shade vs lots of sun)
the list on the seed pack is...
Wildflower Mixture "All Perennial" (16 Species)
Wallflower, Coreopsis, Blue Flax, Purple Coneflower, Lupine, Gaillardia, Sweet William, Shasta Daisy, Dwarf Columbine, Hyssop Lavender, Evening Primrose, Mexican Hat, Gloriosa Daisy, New England Aster, Black Eyed Susan, English Daisy

I have looked up each one individually and the seedlings are always after they have 2-3 sets of true leaves...im just curious if any one knows now... I think the one with a star true leaf is a lupine...but IDK...

You probably got a sunny mixture, judging by the listed plants. So they all would be considered appropriate for sun. You may be able to identify them better when they are a bit bigger. No hurry, they can't be planted outside yet.

Top one is a Lupine. In case anyone wants to lose a bet, I'll gladly oblige ya :gig

Next 2 down I can't tell yet, but so far they look like daisy family plants, Compositae Asteraceae, but even that's hard to be certain of.

Those are likely your Gaillardia and Coreopsis, but time will tell.

First one is lupine and second is coneflower (I have them all over my yard and the leaves stick up straight like that). I do not know what the 3rd one is. I know it is not a Gaillardia, Shasta Daisy, New England Aster or Black Eyed Susan. I have all these in my yard and have not seen fuzzy leaves.

Teehee, next time you could buy them in individual labeled packs, Arielle!! Sounds like you're having fun, and that is the most important part! :D
