    Second looks like an Acer, I dont think either are oak.

    Something tells me no 1 is not a tree seedling, stem looks far too sappy.

      I don't know first but I'd go with some sort of Acer for the second one.

      Fat Hen normally has a silvery sheen on the top few leaves, I don't see that in the photo of No 1.

      Jiffy you're going to have to let them flower so we can get a better idea :blue thumb:
