Trichostema nesophilum, known as dune blue curls, Bald Head blue curls, and Carolina blue curls, is a species of flowering plant endemic to coastal dune grasslands in the southeastern United States.

[1][2][3] It was first formally described in 2019 by R. Kevan S. McClelland and Alan S. Weakley in the Journal of the Botanical Research Institute of Texas.

[2] The specific epithet nesophilum is from the Greek for "island" and "loving", named for its habitat—barrier islands along the coasts of North Carolina and South Carolina.
