Those of you growing this hybrid -- have you noticed that the flower is somewhat unique among Pinguicula, in that it is a dark purplish-red that has an irridescent quality similar to velvet. I find that I have been unable to acquire an accurate image of the blossoms using digital photography. I am planning to try to capture it using conventional film, soon.
I have propagated several of these by leaf cuttings -- my parent plant is currently blooming and I plan to try using it to create hybrids, soon.
