Awesome! I had a related question about this as well the other day; this one is Hydrocharis not Amazon Frogbit (Limnobium Laevigatum) ...

Darrel/ @dw1305, can you you confirm this one?

Anyway, @Danlacey1988 nice job! I want to get mine to flower as well, but since its Limnobium Laevigatum its going to be a more spidery offering... as Darrel so poetically put it

Cheers,
Michael

Picture above is the male flower Limnobium Laevigatum has two flowers 👍

The wider flower is actually a bit more uncommon, at least for me.

Oh, here’s my thread on it: Looks like my limnobium laevigatum has flowered?

Hi all, n
I'm not entirely sure what it is. @Danlacey1988 did the Frogbit come from me? If it did it is definitely L. laevigatum, but that flower look more like it might belong to an Echinodorus or Baldellia? If that is possible?

Picture above is female flower (or male) Limnobium Laevigatum has two flowers.

<"It does">, the very spidery offering is the female flower (the spidery bits are "styles"), the one that looks a bit more like a flower (it has petals) is the male flower, you can see the stamens. <"Flowering frogbit">.

This is the male flower, there is an (out of focus) female flower below it.
