Very nice! My ionantha flowers this time of year as well. It seems a photoperiod of less than 12.5 hours a day might trigger it to flower, but only in the Fall. While I'm on the subject, my primuliflora sent up a stalk at the same time earlier this month
Joseph, what duration of light are you giving your ionantha per day?
All my plants get 15 hrs/day of cool white fluorescent light, from 6pm to 9am. Some days each week I turn the lights on early to work with the plants.
The S.E. USA Pinguicula are in growth and bloom nearly continuously, just like the Mexican species and hybrids.
I must mention that Pinguicula gypsicola is finally blooming for me -- though I have never changed its environment to accomplish this even though I expected I would eventually need to do so.
