Other information
This lovely little species is quickly becoming one of my favorite terrestrial bladderworts!
​
It has small, dark green, round leaves that spread quickly throughout the pot. I've found that once it fills an entire pot it gets cramped and starts producing smaller leaves and fewer flowers. I would recommend dividing it once it fills a pot.
​
The flowers are on shorter stalks, a few inches tall, with multiple flowers per stalk.
