Help ID a plant...
 
Can anyone help me identify this plant
http://mysite.freeserve.com/Donnysite/ It grows about 1m x 1m during
the season, before being killed by the frost (northern England), and
grown afresh each year from gathered seed.
It has pale blue flowers which emerge from a lantern shaped bud.
My web page skills are not great! but can e-mail a better photo if
needed.



Any ideas?

Thanks to David Hill, I have identified the plant as the 'Shoofly
plant' - Nicandra physalodes.

Thanks
