I don't know my flowers all that well, Mary so I can't help you that way...but this is a beautiful capture. Wonderful dof and colors. #10796577

It's beautiful!
I think it may be a wild potato plant. We have some similar on our farm in Tennessee that grow wild, but they are not near a pretty as this one. #10796644

Don't know their names Mary, but I think we all agree that they are beautiful and we would like to have some around us. That blue is so pretty and I love the yellow of the center to give it that wonderful color balance. Your details stand out and let us enjoy the full extent of their beauty. So pretty dear friend.
Have a most wonderful day. #10797058

I think Anita is right. Maybe copy/paste the above to your browser if you'd like. A few images there really look like your beautiful photo! :)

You and Anita are right, Pom. That link includes a potato flower whose petals are closer to purple, but whose details are a very close match. It's called Andean Treats.
Thanks for your comments and suggestions! #10802783
