Oh Dirt2, I love flowers even MORE than I like veggie gardening. It's a whole different way of gardening, really. Do you have a couple of good pics of that multi-coloured flower that you have(had)?
Hang in there until early summer and I will definitely put up a pic of my 4 O'clock. I have been trying to plant some more of them because I love them so much, but I have not have any success. My husband actually planted the seeds that were and still successful. I purchased the seeds at Wal-mart and they are called Kaliedescope 4 O'clocks and have at least 3-4 colors striped, solid, just numerous variations on one plant. I love the unpredictability of the colors.
