    Martha: The flower looks a lot like my Beallara Smile Eri. (I'm not 100% certain about the name on my label, but that's what I'm going with.) The purple edging seems to develop several days after the flower opens.

    I concur with Dave, it is indeed Beallara Smile Eri and it opens white and the purple edging develops after a few days.
