SamuelRodryg Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 I recently bougth a U. Sanderesonii... I know that she is pretty fast in self propagation, but I would like to know if this plant can be pollinated by itself... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Anderson Posted October 30, 2015 Report Share Posted October 30, 2015 I'm not a 100% sure but I think it can be done, I've never tried, if I want more of it I just divide and pot up the divisions. Mark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SamuelRodryg Posted October 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted October 31, 2015 Yeah, I know they can propagte very easly, but I just would want some seeds only for experience, and next to germinate for exeprience too... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you want an Utricularia species that is spreading like a weed in all your terraria, self-fertile and generating lots of seeds, try U. subulata. But be warned: Once you have it spreading in your collection, you'll hardly get rid of it any more! And watch out which form you get: Some clones of U. subulata produce cleistogamous flowers nearly all the time. You never see any of the yellow flowers, but you get lots of seeds spreading around in your plant collection. Other clones (at least) produce many nice yellow flowers.
