My daughter sowed some packets of seeds in pots, she’s never gardened before so didn’t keep the packets I’ve no clue what it is. Any ideas?

But it has a pea shaped red flower would that be clover in April?

I think you'll have to wait till some more leaves develop, Tanith. It could be aquilegia (columbine).

Looks clover like to me

Oxalis? - there are many types.
Wood sorrel, shamrock?

Are you sure the red thing is a flower Tanith? It looks more like a new leaf to me.

janeainsworth I think you may be right I’ve only seen the pics she sent and she asked what the flower was so I just assumed. Time will tell thanks everyone.

Could be red clover, they have hairy stems I think.
