Growing Salsify, also Vegetable oyster

View the Salsify page

I've sown some Salsify seeds from Eden Seeds, but can't find a picture anywhere of what the seed leaves look like. I know the plant has grass-like leaves, but generally the seed leaves are completely different. I'm not game to weed the patch until I can identify which are the salsify seedlings. Can someone please describe them for me? I don't think we can post pictures here, unfortunately.

Google "salsify seedlings" - plenty of photos of the young plants. You may have to wait until they grow a bit.
