How about a nice cup off utricularia Sandersonii ?
This could be a meme instead of that with the swearing in it.

Hahahaha. It could be indeed :p. I put it in this cup because I wanted to see the traps and I didn't have any small pots that would fit her (I didn't want a big pot). It is not my own idea though, all credits go to "thecarnivoregirl.com".

Pure LFS. I cut it before I put it in.

I love that it's growing in a cup! I grew a couple of utrics in a glass cube once and the foliage starting taking over the internal sides that were exposed to daylight -- it was quite something, but not much fun to re-pot haha. Still, a cup is a brilliant idea and I hope that you get the bladder exposure that you're looking for.

Thanks
! I hope it will look like yours. Because that was the kind of look I was hoping for when I put it in.
It already has the bladder exposure (or it is the utricularia microcalyx, I don`t know). I will take a picture of it, if I remember to do so.

I LOVE 'Angry bunnies'! I have the normal and 'Blue" forms. Great plants! Yours looks nice in that glass.

I've repotted it because it didn't grow really well. I'll probably be doing the same with my microcalyx fairly soon. I repotted it a few months ago and it is still flowering
. It is still in a cup though
. It was meant to be as kusamono for my bonsai but it is just for fun, I think
.
Ps. The photo is from 2-3 weeks ago.

How do you get it to flower? I bought 3 plugs of U. Sandersonii around a month and a half ago, and planted them in 3 different terrariums that i have, but they dont seem to wanna flower
They keep on growing, but they dont send up any flower stalks. Well actually one of the plugs has 2 flower stalks right now, but last time, the buds never opened.
Do I need more light? Have their media more wet?

I'm not an expert on them yet but maybe yours needs more light. Mine are in a west window and currently not blooming at all. Maybe it's not the right time of year? You may want to take them out of the terrarium too.
