beaucarnea stricta (ponytail palm)?

i purchased some seeds that were labeled beaucarnea stricta. A few weks later i was happy to see that the seeds were viable. the only thing is that 2 of the plants that germinated look the same and one is totaly different. The 2 look like dracaena draco seedlings and the other one looks like grass but with red on the very bottom on the leaf. If any one can tellme what they look like when the geerminate, post up a link or give any information would help me greatly

and i also dont have a cam fer pics which makes it all the more harder.. sorry
