Well, it depends on the purple pea plant. Purple pea plants can have either PP or Pp.

White pea plants always have recessive, so it would have pp only.

So, the expected outcome of the cross would be -
PP x pp or Pp x pp

PP x pp = all the offspring would be purple in colour
or
Pp x pp = half would be purple and the other half would be white
