Flower-of-an-hour, Guthrie Park, Corunna

This flower was a mystery for me, but thanks some input from a co-worker and to the photo field guide to some wildflowers of southwestern Ontario I finally figured it out.

The flower only lasts a few hours. The plant is uncommon in waste places in summer and fall, introduced from southern Europe.
