P. ehlersiae

Hello,
This is going to be my first butterwort. What are the growing conditions for this fellow? Anything else I should I know about this plant? (Thanks Sarracenia0.)
 
Mexi-Ping so provide an open mix. Keep it a little drier when dormant. grows fast when happy and takes easy from cuttings. In good light it will turn bright pink
 
Pyro. That was good... *stunned*

That was everything - even the fact that it turns pink... In two lines...
 
Pinguicula ehlersiae grows well for me in 100% sphagnum peat moss, in 2 inch rose pots, taller than wide. One plant grows to nearly fill the pot. I use close proximity to fluorescent lights to get the strong form and nice pink tint to the leaves. See photos:
