| OK I'm replying to myself here! Could this be Commelina communis? Asiatic dayflower? If it is drat again! A |

| 2 is Commelina communis, 1 may be Pilea pumila. |
|
| Asiatic day flower has a very small white lower flower petal, and the native one supposedly has the bottom flower petal that is only slightly smaller and the same color as the other two petals...just read this today because I was trying to check out which one showed up. They are annuals. |

| I agree with giantslug that the first is Clearweed, Pilea pumila. Hey, it's native anyway! It will colonize in disturbed ground, so you'll probably see a lot of it as you get rid of your invasives. |
