Morning Eye Candy: A Very Animated Weed
Posted in Around the Garden on October 4th, 2011 by Ann Rafalko – Be the first to commentThis funny little blue weed looks like something straight out of a children’s cartoon. And like many cartoons it is an import into the U.S., but unfortunately not a very funny one. Commelina communis is originally from Asia and is commonly seen in waste places, especially places with water and shade. Commonly known as the Asiatic Dayflower, this cherry but aggressive weed spreads through prolific seed production, crowding-out more desirable native plants. Fortunately, it is easy to identify, and even easier to pull out of the ground.
