Hi natgemma! It's a little difficult to identify without a photo of the leaves. Can you describe them for us? Were they thick & leathery of soft & slightly aromatic when touched for instance? From the flower alone I suspect this is one of the fancier varieties of zonal pelargonium - but there are numerous varieties of that species. Here is a similar looking bloom. http://www.google.com/imgres?start=179&hl=en&sa=X&biw=1258&bih=645&tbm=isch&prmd=imvns&tbnid=iNUPDy_AVpv_gM:&imgrefurl=http://beginningsprouts.wordpress.com/category/uncategorized/&docid=KV8sE1MAtLLj_M&imgurl=http://beginningsprouts.files.wordpress.com/2008/06/bs-july-2008-geranium-all-my-love2.jpg&w=580&h=512&ei=8-1lT5vHH-irsQKyzsS2Dw&zoom=1
