What is the Conservation Status of this plant? It's a pitfall trap that has water between tightly wrapped leaves.

B. Reducta's are really rare in cultivation and it's the only one of it's kind to be a carnivore. Seeds can be readily purchased, sometimes on eBay. I believe the CZPlants sells their plants.

Ok thanks berry. If it's not doing well in conservation status, I'll just leave it alone.

I just bought a small plant from my local CP society. I think these plants are quite hard to grow from seed but why not give it a go.
