Other information
This plant produces lovely rounded leaves with purple veins running through them.
What amazed me most about this plant is the flower stalks. One stalk produced 25 flowers, and was just over 2 feet long!
U. calycifida produces lovely chains of bladders that grow out the bottom of the pot and into the water. It has now started to produce leaves on these off-shoots as well.
