Chestnut seedlings?

Sat May 27, 2017 2:35 pm

I've been cold stratefying in the fridge and planting germinated chestnuts in pots outside on the patio. I did NOT mark them particularly because truthfully, I didn't think they would grow. I know I've planted some from the Korean Hmart market and some from Whole Foods market. They might have been Korean (the really big ones) and regular (Italian?) chestnuts.

I was thinking that the seedling with small clusters of pale colored leaves in the right photo at the base of pecan seed/sapling was almost certainly chestnut, but I discovered these big-leafed seedlings growing out of another pot in the back of the patio (Left photo)

Are they chestnut seedlings, too?

The one on the left could possibly be some kind of oak tree seedling. There's a tremendous variety of oak tree leaves:

But that's mostly a guess...
