An Ugly name for a Pretty flower

After HOURS and HOURS of trying to figure out what this teeny tiny flower was, I came across some weird and obscure reference from Illinois that named it - Indian Tobacco!!


While I wouldnt call it the prettiest name out there, some of the alternatives are worse - Gagroot, Bladderpod, Vomitwort, Eyebright, Pukeweed, Asthma Weed......

I happen to call it the BAT flower.. I mean.. Look at it!!
