>This is not much of a description. Could you specify the differences?
I don't think there's much point because neither is in flower. You can't
do much without flowers, can you? (the leaves aren't too extraordinary)
I was doing some stuff in the Greenhouse today, mainly spraying Diazinon
on the scale on my Sarrs, when I found a mealy bug. I zapped it with
Diazinon and it was very unhappy. Shortly afterwards it croaked. Something
to remember....
I also found a developing scape on my putative _U.blanchetii_. This should
be interesting to key.
I also looked at a plant that germinated in my _U.volubilis_ seed-pot
from Lowrie. Unlike many _Utricularia_, _U.volubilis_ does not have
a stoloniferous mode of reproduction. Each seed produces a single rosette
which eventually flowers then dies. The plant in this pot looks like a
Utric but is not spreading stoloniferously, so I hoped it was something
interesting. Well, today I found two bladders on the plant placed apically
on leaves. These bladders were not underwater but in the air! Very strange.
The bladders nail the plant as being a Utric, and also Taylor claims the
apical bladder placement to be limited to _U.volubilis_ and _U.helix_, so
the list of candidate species has gotten very small very fast! A few weeks
ago I took leaf cuttings (and felt sort of silly using such a tedious mode
of propagation for a member of a genus which is usually very weedy and
invasive) but other than the fact the leaf cuttings haven't rotted, I
haven't gotten any sign this will do anything for me. If they flower I will
make every attempt to self the plant, although that might not be successful.
Here's to hoping....
