U.gibba grow on the side of the pond or of the hole in wich it choosed to live.

Sometimes, if the water level is
lowering, some plant parts may grow terrestrial,
but the substrate must be muddy in this case.

You'll never find this little plant floating free in the middle of the waters...always on the sides.

If the water level is low, few flowers are produced.
If the water level is higher, fllowers can be produced by dozen :
