Default Identification please


I bought this on impulse a year ago, and have forgotten what it is.
Its flowers are actually tinted with blue. Any help appreciated.


Regards,
Nick Maclaren.

Can even SRH identify it from such a small clue?

Thank you very much! It's a very nice plant. Given the way it is
growing, I doubt I need to do much for it, but SWMBO would like me
to establish another clump.

Nick Maclaren.

Wikipedia uses that name, but the current British floras use Tristagma,
so I changed my practice a few year back.
