Is this nigella? Someone to confirm plz. Leaves appear different.


I sowed this locally procured (so called) sweetpea seeds. I am perplexed since germination as they appear more like garden pea(vegetable), infact seed size was also larger. Can anyone confirm with authority whether they are flowering type, as i have placed them at a central location and need to do away if its not lathyrus odoratus. BTW i confirmed with vendor and he was sure that its flowering type.

If you have bought them from Pride Seeds then it's a tall variety that can attain a height of 3-4 feet and the seed size of this particular variety is large then no need to worry.

that's encouraging....seed source was a small shop in mardan.

First looks like annual chrysanthemum and second looks like edible pea to me as leaf pattern is different..

I think nigella leaves are much thinner than that, the first picture.

i agree. but on the other hand its leaves are also thinner than annual mum.

it could be Glebionis coronaria.... did you bought Chrysanthemum coronarium 'Primrose Gem' from T&M?
