Definition
A family of tropical and subtropical flowering plants that includes spiderworts and dayflowers, characterized by colorful blooms that typically last only one day.
Etymology
Named after the Commelin family of Dutch botanists in the 18th century; the suffix '-aceae' is the standard Latin botanical designation for plant families.
Kelly Says
The spiderwort plants in this family are named for their thread-like stamens, and many of their flowers are so fleeting—opening only in the morning and wilting by afternoon—that they're sometimes called 'dayflowers,' making them nature's ultimate commitment-phobes.
