I've planted some seeds from last year's Lavatera Silver Cup - but the
seedlings look just like sweetpeas. I think I might have confused my jars
and have actually sown sweetpeas.

I can't find any pics of Lavatera seedlings anywhere - can anyone help?

I don't have any images of Lavatera seedlings up, but they don't look
that different from those of Alcea. See

When the true leaves (as opposed to the cotyledons) appear they are
similar in shape to the leaves of the mature plant, but less lobed.
