Pings are stupid easy to propagate from leaf pullings. If you get them from other hobbyists they're even less expensive.

Pinguicula are better suited to windowsill culture than most Drosera. Drosera generally prefer stronger lighting and do best either outside in full sun or under lights.

You'd have to try pretty hard, but I suppose it's possible. I grow mine in cow manure and fertilize regularly with liquid fertilizer. I've even thought about adding some Osmocote to the manure,...

Floralia might have known they were selling infected plants, and they might not have known. You don't have the benefit of that doubt.

Confused Kingianum

I got this from Ecuagenera this past spring, and I'm guessing it hadn't been in the northern hemisphere for very long when I got it, as it's been blooming since late August. Very light fragrance,...
