Name this plant

Two self seeded plants, one with white flowers and one with purple. Flowers have four petals, and are very much like Lunaria (honesty), but this has finished flowering. I have seen these before, but can't identify them.

Re: Name this plant

Having checked a few books and a quick consult online I think you are both right. I will save some seed from both of these and see if I can grow them next year. Many thanks for the replies.
