I bought this recently, sold to me as Eryngium (Blue Sea Holly) but it looks

Is this what it's meant to look like at this stage? I know some plants are

Looks like a Brassica seedling. See if it turns out as Purple
Sprouting Broccoli, Cabbage or Bruseels Sprout.. They all look much
the same at that size.
