I guess that's it, I did have others but they seem to die out. Not sure if they are weaker then some or what.

Mine tend to have growing issues and I think they are somewhat weaker Tom. Maybe it is a need to get established first before doing well, and in my environment, I don't let them stay in one place too long!

This one thinks it's a plicata.

'Broken color' comes from an erractic plicata gene , so if plicata shows up it is just part of the series. We don't happen to grow any so no photos from here.

Tom, while you didn't the shape of your flower discussion on facebook has termed it the wrong plant (sold by Schreiner for some years). when it was called to their attention, the took off their list, which must have been a loss of income there. It is evidently light blue with dark blue scattered markings. That sounds correct with the 'mist' part of the name.

I just got most of mine last year, so not many pictures. Here's one that *did* bloom for me last year, though:
