Utricularia longifolia

This is one of my favourite Utrics: easy to grow, big flowers and not invasive . Pity it's a bit shy to flower but I guess you can't have everything. Did you flood the pot to get the flower or did it flower of its own accord?

 

Nice pictures,particulary the first .I like it a lot ,Do you grow it in greenhouse ?

 

Dale- do you grow any other epiphytic species of Utricularia? My friend grows some really nice U. alpina. I've seen a few photos of a red flowering species from Venezuela that are insane.

Been thinking about taking the plunge with these but have had difficulty in finding smaller, Neotropical species.

 

Justin, I hate to tell you but Dale asked that he be banned from here after Jon and Forrest sold the forum to Enrique, and all the changes were made.

Sadly, I think he'd like how it is now, and losing his pictures and knowledge are disappointing.

 

I saw Dale's mug on this thread & my heart stopped - hoping he was back.

 

Bummer. Thanks for giving me the heads up Goods.
