Hi !
I just got an Utricularia species from our local botanic garden.
They could not tell me the name - only that it is probably from Africa.
The leaves are tiny and grasslike, about 0.5cm long. There are several
flowers on a stem of about 8cm. These flowers have a maximum diameter of
about 0.7cm, a somewhat rhomb-like outline and a short white spur.
To me it seems that they have only two petals, the upper one being very
tiny and yellow, the other bigger and yellow in the upper, white in the
lower part.
Any idea what species this is ?
Thanks for your help.
Jens
