I watched this Brug grow into a nice plant all summer. It set some buds, but I didn't think I would see them bloom. I've been keeping it on my covered porch, and hoping that one of them would manage to bloom before it had to come inside. It made it through a couple of very hard frost and then I went and broke off a bloom. To my surprise, after sticking the bloom in some water last night, I woke up to this!

I really thought it was going to be a Dr. Seuss because the leaves are serrated. (but not deeply) It's a beautiful pink, with long 2" tendrils. The picture is of it's first day bloom, and it's cool outside and cold at night. It looked white when I broke it off.

Any guesses as to what I have?
