In 2007, Canada released a self-adhesive stamp featuring the flat-leaved bladderwort (Ultricularia intermedia). This plant lives in bogs and swampy areas of lake and pond shores, and is mostly found in northern North America. Previously, this design had been used in a souvenir sheet of 4 different stamps with water-activated gum (page 2 of this thread). The format of this issue is a kiss-cut (straight edge) booklet of 6, the stamps paying the 93c U.S. rate. Stamp is Sc.#2195 (bk343). From the Minnesota Wildflowers website, "Although the commonly held view is that the bladders of bladderworts are for capturing and digesting microorganisms that provide the plant with nutrients, bladders more often have been observed to contain communities of microorganisms (bacteria, algae, and diatoms) living in the bladders not as prey, suggesting that the bladders may also, and perhaps more importantly, serve to establish mutually beneficial relationships with some microorganisms."  |
