mystery flower seeds
 
Can anyone identify these seeds? A friend gave me several and said they
were 'pretty flowers'. But I'd like to identify them before I plant them
this spring.

You will be very lucky to get an accurate reply here. Seeds are too similar
to each other to say. An expert might be able to narrow it down to the
broad group but to the species and cultivar almost impossible.

I agree. But even a broad group would be helpful.

Shucks, why not just go ahead and plant them. It will be fun to ID them after they have sprouted enough leaves to be recognizable. If you hesitate because of space limitations, there are pots. Go for it!

Yep. I already planted some in a spot where they'll have plenty of room, in case they are large. We'll see what happens.
