Okay, so I probubly could have gotten one cheaper on line or in a trade, but it was just so cute. I couldn't leave it their to be abused by a small child! Okay, so I'm trying to justify impulsivly buying a CP I know nothing about.
Anyhow, I've done some reaserch and learned ... nothing! When I saw it I knew it was some sort of Mexican Ping, I didn't know it was "The" Mexican Butterwort. But thats cool. Other then the common name and the fact that this plant is going to be bigger then I thought, I haven't found much info. Just a lot of pictures. It looks to be quite happy, sticky and fruit fly coverd and is 4 inches accross right now. It's also got a sort of coppery glow around the edges which is real nice. And it set a record to ketching an insect only 1 hour after I got it home.
So, any growing tips on this proticular Ping? Or am I good just setting it in a window and keeping it well waterd?
Oh, and their is this, uh thing on it. A super thin staulk with a swollen brown end. I'm thinking seed pod here, but I've never seen a Ping seed pod and for all I know it could belong to another type of CP that droped it in the center of this plant. (the stalk it thred thing, the brown egg shaped bit is around .5cm long) Thanks all
