They are bladders. It looks (from what I can tell)
and sounds like Utricularia gibba. The bladders
capture very tiny aquatic life (carnivorous plant).
The stuff is a real pest and very hard to get rid of.
Some may not mind it, but I'm definitely not a fan.
Does this look like it?

It doesn't always have the long leaves like in the
picture (or even the bladders).
