What did my kids plant

polydactyl · 2022-05-19 17:06:50

So…..kids were given different seeds one day. Some veg, some flowers. Carefully labelled labels too……work phoned I answered…..mysteries were planted! so far I’m pretty sure a few are cosmos, one is rainbow chard and I think one is beetroot. Can anyone identify these two? Tried three apps to no avail
