Ok

No one can predict the way of life and how it turns out. Plants have their ways, if we were to disrupt the way that nature grows or the way that plants will bloom, we would be disrupting their way of life...

Still pretty small, but about the only other thing I know that would grow out of such wet conditions and look like that is.....sundews.

They certainly look like sundew seedlings to me. You'll know for sure once those leaves unfurl.

I think your going to have a little sundew forest before long. Be sure to keep them sitting in water, the roots are short right now and you don’t want the top surface drying out. Basically do what you’ve been doing.

How about your leaf cuttings? Did you get any plantlets growing from them?
