''Commelina cyanea'', commonly known as scurvy weed, is a perennial prostrate herb of the family Commelinaceae native to moist forests and woodlands of eastern Australia,〔(PlantNET, plant profile ''Commelina cyanea'' )〕 Lord Howe Island and Norfolk Island. The blue flowers appear over the warmer months and are pollinated by bees and flies. ==Taxonomy== ''Commelina cyanea'' was one of the many species initially described by the botanist Robert Brown in his 1810 work ''Prodromus Florae Novae Hollandiae et Insulae Van Diemen'' and still bears its original name. The genus name ''Commelina'' was chosen based on the Asiatic dayflower. Linnaeus picked the name in honour of the Dutch botanists Jan and Caspar Commelijn, using the two large showy petals of ''Commelina communis'' to symbolise them. The specific name is the Latin adjective ''cyaneus'', meaning "blue". As well as scurvy weed, alternative common names include (native) wandering Jew, forget-me-not,〔 and creeping Christian.
