    I just bought my first home about 2 months ago. This week I noticed an amazing flower growing in one of the pots the previous owner (of 30 years) left behind. I am in love with this flower and think it's absolutely gorgeous, but I have no idea what it is. Can anyone shed some light on what this is so I can find more? :D The stem is about 6 inches long, the flower is about 4 inches wide, it's in an 8 inch pot. Sorry for the blurry photos, it was so humid this morning that my camera lens kept fogging.
