'Utricularia menziesii' - a Western Australian bladderwort
Utricularia menziesii is a carnivorous plant endemic to south western Australia. This eye-catching plant is usual in many ways: it is one of only 4 red-flowered species in the genus (of about 220 species); it is pollinated by birds; and is a seasonal perennial that dies down to tubers each summer. The flowers last at least a month. Thus there is plenty of time to enjoy the flowers in cultivation.
