The small seedlings in pic #5 are medium red clover.

We have lots of clover in this cotyledon growth stage and I am optimistic that they will survive the sub-10F temps forecast for tonight under the cover of several inches of snow.

About 15 years ago, temps in the low teens over the Easter weekend killed most of our medium red clover. It had been unusually warm for over a week and the clover had 1 or more true leaves but seemed to be more sensitive to cold than normal because of the preceding warm spell.
