They come in different shades of purple, down to more or less white in my
garden. Plants for free are always good and you can pull them out if they
arrive where you don't want them. (That's when they're weeds of course ..)

Linaria purpurea?
I think they grow wild/escape from gardens. They are probably weeds
for some people but they are pretty.
