Here is a picture of a Ping. I picked up yesterday at a local Nursery.  The rosette is about 6 inches across, and the flower is about 1 inch across.  The prices at this place are kind of all over the place.  A couple of weeks ago they had 3 year old flytraps and flowering age Droseras for $2.50, this shipment has 3 to 4 year old flytraps, Mature Capensis, this ping and 3 to 5 year old S. Purps for 7 bucks apiece.

Wish my nurseries had that. I do not know why but I want to say it is a P. 'titan' even though I am almost possitive I am wrong.

Treaqum, you may well be right. Check out the 10 links to photos of P. 'Titan' in the Pinguicula Photo Finder

Wow I just figured it looked like the leaves of mine and I know it gets blue flowers but I hve never seen them yet. In fact I just got mine

Good call Treaqum, I did a search on P. 'Titan' and came up with the following.  Click on the link below.  I know this is it, because the little card on the package this came in says "Starfish Plant"

Booman flora is mass producing P.'Titan'.
