Oh my, if only Meconopsis punicea seedlings came up like these.  Three inch diameter pots and these up overnight, photos from this morning.  Now you must identify these lusty little fellows!

Sorry, not a Fagus or a Nothofagus for that matter.

I have never seen Sinocalycanthus seedlings but I was also thinking of Styrax which I have seen once.
