Hey Christy it is a dayflower (commelina erecta). I like them even if they are weeds.

Christy - I purposely dug up some of those from an office building and planted them in one of my gardens because I love all blue flowers - weeds, or not!

Chisty & Lynn ~ I love them too! :ding: I have 2 bunches growing into my pond, they like to grow into the water. The blue flowers are some of the brightest I have seen. They will spread rather fast though.
