My guess is a canna. Your use of the words, "large leaf plant" points in that direction. An amaylis has a long leaf but I do not beleive I ever heard anyone call its leaves "large." Then again ... Does the flower look like a lily, on a long stalk with perhaps 3 or 4 flowers at the end of that stalk; are the leaves long? Then I would say amarylis. If it is a "stalky" looking plant, with wide leaves that sort of resemble tobacco leaves, and its flowers are on a stalk, but not just at the end, then I would say canna.

You probally planted a canna bulb. They usually grow 4 to 6 feet tall, and depending on the region you live in you may need to dig it up this fall.

there are such a number of issues it would desire to be; with none further component, it truly is truly no longer uncomplicated to assert. What component of the rustic grew to become into it in? grew to become into it an evergreen, or did it drop its leaves in wintry climate? What shape have been the leaves? What time of 12 months did it flower? I doubt it truly is a peony--they are long-lived perennials, no longer shrubs, and are frequently 3-feet or smaller. My first concept, once you're specific it truly is not an azalea, hydrangea, or rose of sharon, is that it would be a camellia. They improve interior the hotter areas of the rustic, are evergreen, and characteristic great flowers interior the fall, wintry climate, or spring (some varieties are white-flowered, even if in addition they arrive in different colorings). yet another risk is a magnolia, which could each so often improve in a shrubby style. yet there are various, many different opportunities. you will possibly attempt checking mail-order gardening companies' web content for shrubs and notice in case you will locate photos to verify your memory of the shrub. Wayside Gardens is one that has solid photos and outlines.
