Love-in-a-mist genus (7)

I believe the answer is:

nigella

'love-in-a-mist genus' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for nigella that I've seen before include "girl" , "TV personality" , "Flower and tv cook" , "Woman" , "Flower found in legal" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
