I posted this question to two other forums with only one reply. So I thought I'd try here.
I've had this plant for 4 years without a real ID. I thought I would post and see if anyone had an idea.
I got this plant around Easter, 2000. Here is a side view of two stems.
The leaves are *very* finely divided -- much finer than the leaf divisions I've seen in photographs of L. sessiliflora, L. indica or L. heterophylla. The leaves close up near the end of the day.
Here is a vew from above:
At the time my friend gave me the plant she told me something like "it's a limnophila but *not" Limnophila aquatica." I'm not sure why she said that it wasn't L. aquatica other than its size. L. aquatica gets to be about 5 inches in diameter and I've never seen this plant get more than about 3 inches in diameter. The plants in the photograph are 2-21/2 inches in diameter.
I'm not sure but this may be a plant that Tom Barr had and passed around.
