Funnily enough I though it looked Aconite from the back and Black Tulip from
the front! A cut and shut, perchance? Only joking. Black Tulip reflects
whatever surrounds it like a mirror, I suspect it could only be properly
photographed in a white room. Of the ones I have seen Black Tulip *is* a
very dark purple almost black and Aconite is a lighter colour with more blue
or lilac in it.
