A lovely species that has two types of leaf – a grass like leaves up to 20cm long and also short oval leaves at the base. The yellow ‘toadflax’ like flowers on long climbing flower stems up to 45cm high. Makes a lovely display. Will tolerate slightly deeper water than some Utricularia as it is semi ?aquatic. Likes sunny position. Stand in 3-7cm rainwater, with occasional flooding. Not hardy though it will tolerate a light frost.

Received this plant today. Really well packed and protected. A nice strong and healthy Utricularia Praelonga (Brazil). Would recommend any-one who wants to receive plants as you good as these.

Arrived in good condition and has been doing okay in a large glass bowl. Purchased along with a U. Livida which is currently flowering very nicely, although this is presenting a lot of very long grassy stems it’s yet to produce a flower.
