There have to be some benefits from all this cold. It's only 5C outside now and I expect it will drop further.

Just a baby Quercus. if it doesn't rise from the ashes soon it's a gonna. Too long ago to remember now but mine may have had some easy winters getting established. . A winter ago we had -15C and it was in a poor state at the end of it. I cut it right back and it regrew, a shadow of it's former self. Suffered a bit this winter but nothing like as much.

What is it?

Mine's in very stiff soil, impoverished by the catalpa. Not surprised it doesn't do well

Too much warmth B-L. Mine were sown in January in a cold GH, germinated in March. Give them a chilling in the fridge for some weeks and then outside in a cool palce and see what happens.

Most of the Ranunculaceae are cold germinators. penstemons like a bit more warmth. I sow those in the cold GH about end March (ish)

If it looks healthy it will get there eventually. Some of my perennials are tiny.

Weed Identification

Doubt if it's comphrey then, they're not smooth and don't pull up easily, even as babies. That which pulls out easily is usually annual. Someone said earlier that they'll go when you mow and I expect they will.

In those numbers it will be something that was there last year, or previous years, and seeded. cast your mind back to what was there last year. Are there photos to remind you?

Weeds are incredibly diverse, there are hundreds of them and it's not necessarily a weed. Though in your lawn it counts as a weed.

I'd agree with Verdun, let them seed on the ground, they do it willingly and you don't have to do anything except move them to where you want them to be when they're big enough to handle.
