Anyone have a Monkey Flower?

I left mine in MN thinking I'd see them at my next location but the only place I've seen them is in Gurneys as mixed colors. I want only the burgandy ones (with yellow centers). I don't know the scientific name for them and I guess I never took photos either. Could someone post a photo so I can reminisce?

Looks like it.
I remember the blossoms being very velvety looking. Those are pretty.

The blossoms do have a monkey face. I don't see them for sale anywhere, though, but I'll keep my eyes open!

Hi! I think the botanical name for them is mimulus. I do like the rich colors and the way they look. But, I never had much success with them. Looked nice for a bit after purchase but then down hill from there. Nothing by summers end
. Here they are an annual.
