To my untrained eye what you have looks more like what I'd expect from Ionocidium Blue Mist (utricularioides x Onc. incurvum) than from Seewatloppen (utric. x Onc. baueri), but that doesn't mean much! And maybe it's an unregistered cross?

I have added "perhaps" to the plant label.
Personally I think it is a bit of a scandal the way the RHS Register is so user unfriendly on-line. The Registrar himself is a helpful chap , but one doesn't want to pester him ( and maybe he would not be quite so friendly if I did send him a question every time I got stuck ! ) But then, the RHS is a law unto itself - or as I always say when I pretend to defend it - "Its the best RHS we've got" and my opinion of it is so high that I resigned my membership - after 50 years - a couple of years ago.
