It looks like a flower call "stock" or gillyfkower. They are really reasonable price.

I can't get a good look at the flower shape. That's making hard for me to tell. It may be a version of hyacinth. Here's a picture.

My second choice was Stock. I wasn't sure because I thought the flower heads got a lot bigger that what was shown in the pic.

@Scottielass:

My other choice was hyacinth but it didn't look "full" enough in the picture...so I thought it might be stock since it didn't have as many blooms....

Oh thanks guys :) Looks like I could get something similar with either hyacinth or stock. How do you think those would look with cream colored garden roses?

I work for a florist, and it is definitely purple stock! :-)

I think it would look great together.

An inspiration that has orchids, stock, and roses...but it's all in purple..

I think it looks like stock too, but snapdragons would be a good alternative too!

Yep, it's Stock. Stock is a really delicate and fragrant flower. They alllllmost smell like lilacs, however not as strong. It's one of my favorites. :)
