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.
