Need to see the leaves. If it is a tall plant with large leaves it could be a Canna. Otherwise I'm not sure. Someone else may recognise. Welcome to GOY.

I don't know the flower but welcome to GOY. I hope someone will recognise it for you.
All the best, Hywel.

Welcome. Beautiful colors. I can't see the leaves very well, but I agree with Chris. I think it's a Canna, and a nice one at that!

What a beautiful blossom. Strickly guessing I would say a Canna and a most unusual one at that!!

Looks like my Canna Tropicanna Gold.... interesting dapply flower petals and that yellow sizzles! What colour are the leaves, Donna? The above has limegreen, yellow white and cream striped leaves.

I know there are plenty of new varieties coming out all the time, Donna...the flowers on mine are very similar to yours, but the leaves are variegated stripes.... check out my pics... posted pics in Sept. of Canna, tropicanna gold... with the leaves visible... I'm a convert ...I love these plants...I have a dwarf red...which the hummingbirds love...and C.Tropicanna which has orange flowers with red, yellow and midgreenstriped leaves...and the C.T.gold which has the yellow flower, and limegreen, white and yellow striped leaves.
