Flower ID please (Commelina) - Roitelet - 22-10-2020

Can anyone identify this plant. It grows to about 1 mètre and is found planted in a wild insect friendly garden in Holland. It is growing on a West facing bank in half shade.

It looks like a pea family but without knowing more about how it grows I'm stumped.
Is it a shrub or a single stem plant?
Does it twine?
Is it on a cane?
Do the leaves belong to the flower?
Annual or perennial?

Sorry - no help!!

Is it Commelina (common day flower)

I think you're right, Admin. Smile

Thanks folks, I knew some one would know. I will pass the info on to my Daughter who was the one who found it.
