iOS Swift-从选定的TableView单元格获取BackgroundColor

Question

I have a ViewController with a TableView in it.
Via code, I populate the cells of the TableView and with other code, I set the Cell's BackgroundColor.
NOTE - in other parts of the code I do this with
cell.backgroundColor = UIColorFromRGB(0xAA66CC) // although the specific RGB value for each cell will vary.

Now on my Segue to another View I want to retrieve, not only the "Name" element, but also the Cell's BackgroundColor and send it on to the next ViewController.
I am getting the "Name" just fine, but I am not sure how to get the BackgroundColor value (which I will then need to convert to a String for passing).

My Segue code is:

override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSeque, sender: AnyObject?)  
{  
if segue.identifier = "GoToNextVC" {  
  if let cell = sender as? UITableViewCell {  
    let destination = segue.destinationViewController as! NextVC
    let indx = tableView.IndexPathForCell(cell).row
    destination.SelectedValue = self.peripherals[indx].name // This works fine.  

    destination.SelectedColor = **< I don't know what to do here >**
    }  
  }  
}  

That code works to get the SelectedObject Name, but I am not sure how to get the Cell's BackgroundColor so that I can then pass it through the Segue.

Your assistance would be greatly appreciated.

I will try with:

cell.backgroundColor

If you have cell then you can get the color.

override func prepareForSegue(segue: UIStoryboardSeque, sender: AnyObject?)  
{  
  if segue.identifier = "GoToNextVC" {  
    if let cell = sender as? UITableViewCell {  
      let destination = segue.destinationViewController as! NextVC
      let indx = tableView.IndexPathForCell(cell).row
      destination.SelectedValue = self.peripherals[indx].name // This works fine.  

      destination.SelectedColor = cell.backgroundColor
    }  
  }  
}
