In what episode was it where Homer was caught on tape eating flowers (something like . . . "my secret's out", or "go back to Holland?") Saw it only 1 time.

It was Burns' Heir (1F16) - you probably only saw it once because it was cut out in syndication. Here are the two relevant scenes:

       % Burns and Bart walk into a monitor room.
       %
       % Burns: This is my pride and joy. I've had hidden cameras planted in
       %        every home in Springfield. I got that idea from that movie
       %        "Sliver".  [chuckles]  What a delightful romp.
       %
       % Burns turns on the monitors, on which we can see:
       %  - Homer's bathroom
       %  - Moe talking to himself in a mirror, wearing fatigues.
       %  - Reverend Lovejoy in church (and in whatever you call what he wears
       %    in church) drinking from a (wine?) bottle
       %  - A couple (who look something like Mrs. Krabappel and Jacques from
       %    a distance) kissing
       %  - Chief Wiggum in the bath, wearing his police cap and playing with
<0:37> %    a rubber duck
       %  - Maude Flanders eating ice cream out of the carton
       %
       % Moe: [to mirror] Are you talking to me? There's no one else here; you
       %      *must* be talking to me!
       %       [a gun in a spring-clip whizzes up his sleeve and smashes the]
       %       [mirror]
       %      Well, that was an antique. Crap!
       %
       % Another screen shows Homer sneaking into the bathroom, locking the
       % door, and... eating the heads off tulips he brought.
       %
       % Homer: Oh yeah... so good...
       %  Bart: So *that* explains his mysterious trip to Holland.

(later)

         Homer: Go to your room!
          Bart: No! This family stinks! Mr. Burns nurtures my destructive
                side. I'm suffocating here!
       % Homer: Bart, you listen...
       %  Bart: Oh, go eat some flowers!  [tosses some at Homer]
<0:07> % Homer: Aah! My secret shame!
       %
       % Bart walks out of the living room
                                           and rides his bike to Burns' manor.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think it's from the episode "Burns' Heir".

It was "Burns' Heir", the one where Bart is chosen to be ..(drumroll, please)... Burns' heir.
