Description

Utricularia sandersonii is one of the easiest and most charming of the terrestrial bladderworts.  It can be grown outside in areas with mild summers and it seems like it's almost always in flower.  The best part are the little flowers that look like angry bunnies.  This particular form has wider, bluer flowers than that of typical Utricularia sandersonii!

Please note; when we ship Utricularia, the delicate flowers cannot withstand the shipping process. You will likely receive a pot with no flowers but many small stolons (these look like small blades of grass) that indicate lots of healthy growth in the pot. These small faux leaves can be hard to see! But keep in mind that the real action is under the soil, where the Utricularia will have many, many tiny bladder-like traps! With a little time and care, they will start producing flowers. 

Care Instructions
Sun: Prefers to hide in the shade of other plants, they will also thrive indoors, under grow lights
Water: Always sitting in a few inches of distilled or purified water
Temperature: 40 - 90 degrees
Dormancy: none needed

Perfect

Beginner to carnivorous plants here, and very happy with this purchase! Packaged so well, and the little stolons/“grass blades” have been multiplying along with the moss which looks lovely. Still waiting on flowers for now!

Waiting for bounce back!

Shopping, shipping, service is excellent, as always. I fully expected it to look a little beat up as it was stated in the plant description, shipping is hard on them. I'm sure it will be beautiful when it snaps out of shipping shock, it's already greening up:-)

FAQs

WHAT HAPPENS IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH MY ORDER?

We guarantee your plant arrives alive and healthy. If there is a problem, email us within 72 hours of delivery with a photo of the plant, and we will make it right.

Please note: some cosmetic stress from shipping is normal and not eligible for replacement, including minor leaf loss, brown spots or small tears. Our team will use their expertise to determine whether an issue qualifies under this guarantee. There is also seasonal, cyclical growth to many of these plants and they may arrive dormant.
