Hi Mary,
Sorry to hear this. It is usually an easy plant to grow, but I didn't have success with my first try either. Maybe it was where I put it. I got more from a friend and it's thriving now. You might want to sow the seeds in the garden where you want them to grow. That way the strong ones should survive. Take a look here for some growing info. It's worth a try if you have the seeds.

Good luck,

When weeding, the best way to make sure you are removing a weed and not a valuable plant is to pull on it. If it comes out of the ground easily, it is a valuable plant.

Woogiebehr,
Could be the soil too, maybe!
Sometimes it's to baron for it,
Or too dry for it!
It likes a moist or rich in compost like
soil....
Or maybe the year before if it was too dry
and the flower production was poor, the seeds
may not have been good either to re~seed it's
self...

Don't forget to be kind to strangers. For some who have
done this have entertained angels without realizing it.
