What plants are indigo coloured?
Although I'm not aware of any 'indigo' colored plants ('blue jean' or denim blue), there are some which produce naturally blue flowers: agapanthus, bachelor buttons, iris, corn flower, violets to name a few. The actual indigo plant is green, and through a process of fermentation, it produces the dark, intense indigo blue dye.
