Stowaway plant.

Stowaway plant.

This little plant arrived as a stowaway about two years ago in the pot of some other plant I bought.
I know it’s nothing special, and I should really know what it is; but its name eludes me!
Earlier in the day when the sun was shining, the flowers opened more; it is actually a nice blue flower.  :)

Would someone please write me a label for it….Thank you!

Maggi is right. In my garden it was not hard.
