I mislabelled the plants and grew them as B. filifolia in moist LFS.

They are now flowering at the height of 6cm and THEN I realise that they are actually the aquatic species.

The flowers do not open fully in my conditions.

The seeds were labelled as "copper coloured stems up to 20cm tall".

Dark purple petals

Compared with mauve/lilac B. filifolia petal

Amazing speed at which they develop and mature...considering that the first flower was pollinated at the beginning of this month!
