Long story short, i bought these Bonsai Orange tree Seeds while at the Seed market in the Netherlands, but from when i planted(in october-november) till now they don t seem much like something that s gonna grow into an Orange tree, It seems more like normal grass. Have I been scammed?

Dude even if those seeds were real it’s gonna take years (probably decades) to have a similar tree.
If you want a bonsai i recommend you to buy a Jade tree, with the correct conditions and care they could have a nice bonsai shape.
Looks like nut grass. That’s what we call it where I am
When you eat oranges or any other citrus fruit including lemons just save the seeds and put them to germinate. They germinate easily. Zero costs 😉
I thought bonsai were exclusively made from cuttings and not seeds and that’s why they looked like trees even when they’re small. TIL.
It could be blue-eyed grass?
You could also go outside and find saplings. That’s what I did when I wanted to try bonsai.
