Thank you everyone. It stopped me in my tracks that morning. Took me a couple pictures to capture accurate colors. That picture is straight off my phone!
The flowers are in the 6-7 inch range. I think in the ground with good sun the stats would be better. It's currently with 3 other seedlings in a 2 gallon pot.... But the good news is that all of them survived sustained periods below 0 with no mulch!
Of course, my mother has already laid claim to the first fan!
