I can't remember exactly (shame on me), but the set up of the series is either that the novel The Scarlet Pimpernel is a fictionalized account of the true historical exploits of the Purple Gentian and his League of Spies, or that SP was real and these other flower-named spies were his colleagues and/or enemies.
I liked the cover, but thought the dress looked wrong. I'm not up on exactly what styles were worn when, though.
