Mystery Plant

This plant is growing in a large unused pot in our driveway. We have no idea what it is, but the flowers only seem to open for a hour or so before disappearing:

Any ideas?

 

Thanks neal. nice try, but I got no results there. I heard about Leafsnap but that appears to be only trees.

 

You can google a photo. It would be interesting to crop out the flower and google it to see what you get as results. I would try it but its some messing around on an iPhone. I once googled a photo of my face and it came back with people that looked like me and one was me. It was a holy crap moment. The Internet scares me sometimes.

I did try google from my desktop computer, but I didn't isolate a leaf. The results that it returned were useless. It returned 16 pictures of various kinds, and when I clicked on any of them it brought me to the same endless photo search. They just throw the sh*t at you and you might as well just get walk around and look at gardens yourself.

Maybe I'd get better results if I isolated a leaf or flower.

 

Awesome dude! That is exactly it. Wonder where it came from? Its a long way from NZ to NJ

 

That's what I get for trying to be fancy and and google a picture. A simple word description does the trick. Nice pickup on tuning in on the short flower life, neal.

 

...ha...ha

 

Yeah, I shoulda known all the wise guys would show up........
