help! I call it bladderwort, but it's something else. big bud and a white flower at the end. Some folks consider it a weed, but it's beautiful and well behaved for me.

What is the darn thing called? I plan to harvest seeds.

Looked it up. Is that cute! Everyone who sees my garden says "You have so much!" Well it is because of all you enablers who entice me with new plants. I've got to WS this next year!

Oh, I have that plant. It came as a stowaway with a swap plant. Thought it was most likely a weed but I think it is pretty so have kept it in a small area, deadheading before it can go to seed.
