No feeding for all my terrestrial utrics. But maybe there may be little worms already inside the peat...I dunno.

Hehe, I put it there for fun. Watering if planted in a pot would be using a container as deep as the pot.

Cute plant! Haha it's the one terrestrial utric that I want. Too many to collect all @_@ there are like 214 or something. So I'm just gonna go for 2, sandersonii and gibba. Just wondering, do each of the flowers actually produce seeds? I wouldn't mind buying/trading for seeds haha. I like how you put it in that container hehe, it looks good

Hi Zakhren, there are two forms of sandersonii. I have not gotten any seeds from the white form and I have not heard from my friend that he has seeds from this blue form too. But utrics are easy to propagate. Just pinch a clump out like the one in the photo, chuck it in peat media and it will continue to grow. Just that the blue form does not flower so readily. I am still experimenting.

Really that easy to propagate? Haha well i suppose if I had to choose one then I'd go for the white. But you continue experimenting. I don't know much about utrics~

As far as I know, U sandersonii doesn't produce seeds, it breeds through divisions if I'm not mistaken.

zakhren, if you are still looking for U. sandersonii plants I can give you the details of a guy in Australia that sells both forms for around $3 Au. PM if you are interested and I will forward his details to you. Adam
