Looks like it might be a little rotundifolia... just a guess.

It's pretty small, but looks like an intermedia seedling to me. Definiately not rotundifolia, the lamina on rotundifolia is more round, and often broader than long. Intermedia is usually a temperate species and has a required dormancy unless it is a tropical strain. It likes very wet conditions, often growing out of water in habitat.
 
yeah, i thought i may be a rotundifolia or a intermedia. but still not sure.
 
Ditto on what Tamlin said, it looks very much like an intermedia to me. Where'd you find it? (I assume this is a wild picture?)

rotundifolia is wider than long, intemedia is longer than wide...

Thats what i read in a book...

No pygmies grow in North America...

Ok, I did some research and I think it is rotundifolia. Yes, it is a wild picture, because I made the picture and they grow behind my house, wild, in lots of spaghnum moss, next to the water by a pond. It is in New Hampshire.

I still stick with intermedia: the lamina is distinctly paddle shaped, and the coloration really leaves little doubt.

I'll second intermedia, I have both species growing outside in my bog, rotundifolia, as it's name suggests, has much rounder leaves. They are shaped more like table tennis bats than paddles.
