Definitely not cobaea. i don't think the species variation ever gets into blue; it is mostly lavender-purple. Basal foliage is hardly wider, and it never gets as thin as your pic. I think it has the largest flowers of the genus. The flowers are not hairy like your pic at all, and individual flowers are on short stems. All this, and you can see the overall shape is different, too.
