Name That Plant!

Can you ID this seedling?

Here is a seedling that is coming up all over an area I just renovated with new plants last year. I am needing to ID it so I can figure out if it is a seedling of any plants I just took out of there and am trying to get rid of. I have a guess of what it could be but will let you all look at it first.

The seeds are very flat and tiny, and I thought at first it could be very well be Amaranthus Caudatus, because it's listed in the mix package, but those little plants does't look very much like 'Love Lies Bleeding' seedlings Thanks in advance!

@floral_uk z.8/9 SW UK @dbarron I appreciate the healthy skepticism! This is a west coast seller with 2k 5 star reviews on Etsy, so I don't share the skepticism just yet. I got an immediate refund so no concerns there. Who knows for sure, but I was really just curious if we could ID them!

No...no thalictrum in the yard. Not really celandine but I do have the European or Asian version of Celandine, maybe? That bed had Sensitive Fern in it and I am just hoping that isn't what these seedlings are because I really wanted to get rid of them. I know it really doesn't look like a fern but Sensitive Ferns have those thick fronds and I've never seen seedlings of them so I just wondered. It these are the celandine type plant I will just pull them as I find them. Thanks very much.

Looks like celadine poppy...Stylophorum diphyllum. They reseed where they are happy...easy to pull or transplant, though. They never fail to make me smile when I look their way.

Jeanne, I think you gave the latin for the Asian version of the Stylophorum that anita is referring to. Chelidonium Pretty sure that is what I have. I did google the Stylophorum seedling and came up with the post linked below, but no photos of the seedlings.
