Okay, I'll keep the thread going. This is not my picture, but I edited the watermark out of the original so that it wouldn't come up in a reverse image search.
I'm curious to see if anyone knows what this plant is?
Good guess, but incorrect. I will give you a hint, since I know this is difficult, because scale is hard to determine from this photo. Here's the hint... the plant in this photo is in a 2-inch net cup. Hell, here's another hint... it's carnivorous.
Dang it, I'm starting to realize this one was too damn difficult.
YES! It is actually a semi-aquatic species, but you are correct! (Thank you because I really was wondering whether I made it too difficult).
It is called Utricularia graminifolia. It sends up some of the most delicate looking, beautiful flowers I've ever seen, which (as you astutely pointed out) remind one of orchids.
You know more about my plant than I do. The label just said "catnip" when I bought the little 2" cutting at the store. All I know is that the cats loved it.
I love cat mint almost as much as cats do, lol. But yes, actually cats seem to prefer this species to catnip. Plus they are more beautiful than catnip, which is kind of weedy.
