This terrestrial African bladderwort is quite an easy grower overall like many of its similar relatives, producing carpets of grass-like tiny leaves on wet soils an sending up short stalks with, as the name suggests, very small but intricately patterned flowers. The blooms are similar to its relatives U. livida and sandersonii, with a small upper lip and broad flaring lower lip shaded light bluish patterned with triangular lavender-blue markings underneath a white halo and similar dark purplish semi-circle, and a green line right near the throat.
Plants are sold as 0.5-1" wide/deep plugs.
