What shade of blue is this ??

[drstranger]

A plant in the garden has flowered and it's this gorgeous blue colour, or is it purple ?? I'm not sure but it's beautiful !! Any idea what the plant is also ? 😆

Pics would help

Iris maybe?

Not really this is a typical iris

It's flax. Blue to me.

Unless those thick leaves are it's leaves, in which case definitely not flax

Blurple.

Lithodora ( though I think the botanists are changing its name.

Looks like Lithodora

Cornflower blue but it's not a cornflower.

Gromwell?

I think it's a periwinkle and it's periwinkle blue.

Is it quite tiny? If so, maybe lithodora?

Gentian blue?

oops, my plant identification app says @AdaColeman is correct and it's a gromwell (which I've never heard of!)

I think it could be this, Lithodora diffusa 'Heavenly Blue':

I also think it’s a periwinkle

I'd call it gentian blue.

Royal blue or cerulean.
It looks like Rosemary. From picture Lithodora diffusa 'Heavenly Blue'.

It is described as a royal blue flower.

My money's on gromwell/lithodora, same family.
I had one once, glorious blue!

I really want this blue in my house somewhere but don't know what room I could use it in, it's lovely.

Yeah I think it's Glandora (looked on plant id too) you'd think I would know as I planted the thing !!

I second cornflower

Definitely a Lithodora , I have that one although don’t know which one it is !
