This is one of the classic South African forms of the species, producing mats of small, elongate ovular leaves that cover the soil surface and will grow in anything from mildly moist to slightly submerged conditions. Flower stalks will sport at any one time from one to a half dozen slipper-shaped blooms, the upper lip tiny and the lower colored half-white, half-lavender (though lower light may produce seemingly all-white flowers). Once established it often blooms profusely, dozens of stalks with hundreds of blooms possible even from a small pot.
Plants are sold as plugs 0.5-1" wide/deep.
