We might need to wait until that plant has more leaves to identify it, unless, of course, someone is growing the same thing and knows definitely what it is.

hiya... it's a little fuzzy but my first guess would be purple coneflower? Is that something you tried? My plants have a few more leaves but looked just like that a month ago when it started warming up. They sometimes like the cold of winter in order to germinate so that might be why they waited until this spring...

Could it be a canna?

It reminds me of the Widow's Tears that I was always pulling out at my old house.

Thanks so much for your replies.I have been thinking really hard and was able to eliminate a few that I know how the leaves look like.I don't remember trying either canna or coneflower. I remember trying seeds of a vegetable that belongs to cucumber family but is yellow and round in color and also tastes sour. I will ask my friend for the english/botanical name for it from whom I received the seeds.I have no clue how this plant looks like. Also I have tried ginger.

Anything in the cuke family would likely be a vine, yes?

It definitely resembles ginger leaves, though.

It is about 6 weeks now that they are doing nothing. I am getting little impatient. Was thinking to remove soil from one side to see....if ginger then there should be the chunk I stuck in. Cukes family has different shape leaves too.However sometimes the first two leaves may not look like the real ones. Since I have three of the same kind, I am thinking about digging one up to check...You think that will hurt the plant a lot?
