P esseriana for _____

Throwing together a new terrarrium and I need some Utrics and Drosera that would do well. My P. esseriana took over an entire pot so I have some spillage to trade off! Shoot me a pm with what you got and I'll work something out

Do you have anything else to offer? I already have P. esseriana.

I also have some spare P. 'Sethos' but it seems you grow the only two pings I do!

Edit: oh it's P. 'Sethos' not P. 'Titan'. The P. 'Sethos' is from jimscott and the P. esseriana were cuttings from Thomas

WOW ... Those look Nicely grown ..... well done
 
kind of a tangent...how do you manage to turn your P. esseriana pink like that? i've been growing them under high intensity CF lights but they still maintain that greenish-lime color.

Thanks CN, it took me a while to get the hang of it. The P. 'Sethos' flower constantly and are very vivid! One of my favorites.
I've been offered U. dichotoma , U. livida, U. sandersonii blue, and D. pulchella x nitidula gemmae thanks alot guys I only have a couple left now!

I grow with 4x 4100k t12 fluorescents. They're happy at 15" and can turn deep red and compact if I move them to 10" away from the lights.

elandolf,
Nice growing, thanks for sharing the pics. No matter how many plants I grow I always enjoy seeing other people's plants.

I keep mine within a few inches of the fluorescent lights, until they start to bloom.

Hmm... I wonder if my Moranensis hybrid is P. 'Sethos'?

:offtopic:Several years ago I distributed several hundred Pinguicula 'Sethos' in a giveaway.

Here's a photo taken of one of mine -->

That's my "hybrid"... Look similar?

:offtopic:The plant leaves look like they could be P. 'Sethos', but several species, hybrids, and cultivars have similar leaves. The flower will be needed for positive verification.

Yeah, this did get off topic.
Anyway, It should be flowering soon... I guess I'd post a pic to your profile page.
