| Identification | Corn Speedwell is a diminutive annual that often is only a few inches tall, but potentially to a foot; it can be easily overlooked, even at times in bloom. It tends to grow in clumps or small patches. There are 3-6 pairs of small leaves per stem, widely ovate in shape, with a few teeth. The inflorescence is terminal, short and congested when young but elongating potentially to 6 inches. The flowers are tiny and blue, 2-4 mm diameter, on very short pedicels. V. triphyllos has deeply 3-lobed upper leaves. | |
