@luvsgrtdanes, you are right with the Calceolaria, but I need to know the 2nd name. It's not a cultivar.
To @luvsgrtdanes @ishareflowers @deejay49 ; it's a Calceolaria, but let me know which one.
To @poisondartfrog: these seeds stay viable for several years (at least 4 years here), so if you have some left, you can grow them again.
If you have none left, try to guess the name, before anyone else does.

@JonnaSudenius , actually Lisa/ishareflowers guessed it first. She mis-typed when posting and immediately edited in the answer. You'll see that her edit time is earlier. I personally saw it happen.

Okay, I would like to post a game.

I will give a clue each day about a plant that I grow here in my garden. I will allow one guess per person per day. The prize will be a seedy one.

Clue #1
I'm a spring bloomer.
