Hi. Apologies if this is the wrong place for questions...
I am a gardening novice, and have experimentally sown Aquilegia, cornflower, poppy and Nigella seeds in my flowerbed. How, erm, do I know what are weeds, and what are my actual plants?? It seems to be the same seedlings coming up (or do ALL seedlings start with just two small leaves??).
Sorry if it sounds a silly question. (Feel abit intimidated being on the Gardeners World website!)

They look like little suns and they always make me smile! Sometimes I put a bunch in a little vase... and they are allowed to grow in my lawn!!! I just pick the dead flowers before they set seed.
I wonder why nobody has cultivated them into a "real" big gardenflower??!!
