Weeds in Flower Mix

10 years ago

I planted this wonderful flower seed mix and they are coming up now and I *think* I see weeds and the urge to yank those suckers is strong! BUT...I don't want to accidentally pull any flowers. Should I leave them alone for now (until I get some height/identifiability) or can you guys help me ID the ones to pull? Thanks!

You'll have your usual weeds growing that you have growing everywhere else, of course. I suppose the question is, do you trust yourself? It's always easiest to ID them when they're older... If it's super obvious to you that you have, e.g., a dandelion, then pull it. Otherwise wait a bit.

Sorry but the photo is no good at all for id purposes. If you take some close ups of anything you are curious about maybe we can help.
