is this a tree?!

17 years ago

I've noticed several of these popping up here & there in my flower beds. I don't have any plants that resemble these seedlings! They're about 2 inches tall. In person, they look like tiny little trees, & feel kind of prickly, like a pine tree. Thanks for any help!

That link didn't work for me...so I would say no.

Link didn't work for me either. They could be baby pine trees - I get them when I use Pine Bark or Pine straw mulch.

The things I get in my flowerbeds that look like baby pine trees are actually tumbleweed seedlings.
