I don't know the name of this flower, but it was stunning in these multicolor masses around the front flag pole of the bank. This bed is always an interesting mix year to year.

Poor Man's orchid, perhaps?

Wow thats so beautiful!

Yes, I think it is Poor Man's Orchid. I grew them once, indoors on my living room windowsill. They looked really stunning from the street! Even better in a way than my balcony because they were all the same plant though several different colours. :)
I must grow them again next year!

This bed is just glorious each year. They have at least 15 of these planted with the others. The gerbera's got a little buried I'm afraid. I'll have to get a full shot when those giant cosmos open up.
Thank you all for the comments.
