    Oh that's a relief...all the MMs I've seen have a simple, buttercup style flower. This one isn't round and has red spots.

    The flower looks like Mimulus luteus to me - have we got two plants tangled up there?

    Would it be wise to separate them now or when the growing season has tailed off? I don't think that basket can accommodate them both.
