I am growing it, thought of all the BMR cultivars it is the slowest grower for me. If it picks up I might be able to provide for you but the way it is growing it will still be a few months.
Invasive? Hmm.. If so then there is something wrong with my plant. It has been a small tyke since I first got it, largest leaf was dime sized. Most of my other BMR cultivars are much more massive and rapid growing, in fact, I think 2 of them are about to flower
"Utricularia calycifida is a plant with fast development which multiplies very abundantly. It thus needs an enough broad pot to be able to extend its stolons and its 'roots'."
Most calycifida are very prolific, for some reason this one and one other of the BMR cultivars are very slow and reluctant for me though.
Since these plants are still true species they do not exhibit hybrid vigour (which is what I assume you are refering to when you say it should grow faster.)

That makes sense. I was actually referring to "fast development which multiplies very abundantly". I originally didn't think that a cultivar would show that much of a difference, but now that i'm thinking about it, it could be a complete change...that's kind of the point.
