Thanks, Jackie! And no...I knew you'd know it! Thanks, Jackie! And no wonder I couldn't find it - it's not listed in Newcomb's and in the NYS Revised Checklist of Plants the common name is simply "bladderwort" - you'd think that because the color is unusual that they'd use it in the common name, eh?Ellen Rathbonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17684750034177425795noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1194066715822423007.post-58227465071990034722010-07-30T21:20:09.315-04:002010-07-30T21:20:09.315-04:00I think your bladderwort is Utricularia resupinata...I think your bladderwort is Utricularia resupinata, or Lavender Bladderwort. Note how the flowers appear to be tilted backwards. You can find photos on the web if you type in the Latin name and search. But you were mighty lucky to find this pretty flower, since the USDA shows it as a rare plant in many surrounding states, although it is not listed as such in NY. But I've never seen it. Nice find, and nice photos.Jacqueline Donnellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13390548854179921303noreply@blogger.com
