I was just wondering if anyone who has grown these could give me some information on this. Do all varieties of this plant turn to that reddish/copper tinge when exposed to enough light, or do some stay green?
This is where I'll post about my indoor collection. I decided to be so public with it because I am very serious about making it better (all within means of course!). I recently lost a great many of my older plants, though a few decade + ones survived my year off at university. As I plan on...
I really gotta stop coming up with weird titles lol.
Anyway I just performed a mass leaf pulling on all of my pings this Friday (06/27/14) and thought I would start a development thread incase anyone was interested.
I am too lazy to retype all the pings so I am just copying the description...
Roll up the Rim
This P. moranensis was grown out from seed by me a short while back, and I wanted to share some pics of this plant's rolled up leaf margins.
The margins roll upward and inward, looking like the underside of a Frisbee.
Here is the plant just before I fed it some powdered...
I have limited space for carnivorous plants, but for those who are interested, this is my list. I kind of like my plants bloody, red, and dangerous looking. I also have regular house plants, but I'm definitely not listing those as there are too many.
Pink is quantity for trade/sell. Green is...
Last year when some of my Mexi-pings were flowering I took the time to cross pollinate a few of those flowers.
One of the plants in flower was this seed grown P. agnata.
And its flower
It was crossed with this P. colimensis.
And its flower
These were the resulting P. colimensis x...
I've been wanting to give back for the help I've received and any plants I've received here. I finally have something to spare. I know it isn't much but for now I'm giving what I can. They aren't full blown plants, I rooted leaf pulls about a month or so ago. I have three species: esseriana...

Apparently, this is a false John Rizzi:
Skimming through the Photofinder, I couldn't find an exact match. Whoever 'staticflicker' is, I think we have the same cultivar. About all i can conclude is that it appears to have moranensis traits.
I'm looking to add a new plant to my little collection... why not a mexican butterwort?
specifically, i would LOVE a Pinguicula laueana, but really, something like P. moctezumae or P. moranensis i would gladly accept.

whats a good soil mix for mexican pings
I was told rocky, pumice, lava rock with a little bit of peat. When I tried that the rhizomes started to dry up and die, maybe I mixed it wrong or didnt use enough peat or something.
what I have on hand is perlite, silica play sand, red lava rock and...
