Please help ID plant with pretty brown designs
Comments (3)Maranta leuconeura kerchoveana, to be specific. I 'think' that this one might be easier to grow than some of the other Maranta. Commonly called Ten Commandments plant....See MoreID help please, pretty bloom
Comments (5)Mine shrunk a lot last winter and looked dead until about May or April, at which point it basically doubled in size in a very short period of time. Is that normal? If so might be worth giving a heads up to the topic starter since it's about that time of year. If not, then disregard this ;)...See MorePlease help me ID this pretty blue flower
Comments (4)Clearly a Commelina, but it doesn't look like the Commelina communis that I've seen, those having longer, narrower leaves that are pointed at the tip, as well as generally being much larger plants than your pictures seem to indicate. A search on the USDA PLANTS Database also shows that Commelina communis isn't reported to occur in California. Only one species is reported in California, Commelina benghalensis, which is listed as a noxious weed by the state of California. So presumably that's what you have. I've linked a web page (from Hawaii) with information about that species, which has pictures showing that the leaf shape matches yours closely.

Here's the whole crazy bunch! Definitely two different Graptoverias - very obvious now when they are in the same photo (lowest plant and lower left most plant). Thanks everyone for your help and input!
