    Nigella damascena

    There are several cultivars available with flowers in shades of pink and purple, including ‘Albion’, ‘Blue Midget’, ‘Cambridge Blue’, ‘Miss Jekyll’, ‘Mulberry Rose’, ‘Oxford Blue’ and ‘Persian Jewels’.

    All fairly good names for rock bands. Maybe better for album titles, actually.
