    Anpa b

    I was just curious about ANPA B, there doesn't seem to be much info about it on the web. Just a few pictures and references to it existing on pinguicula.org, I don't see much mention of B on forums or any photos posted elsewhere. There's enough of A, C, and D but that's about all. Is this a...

    New mail order ping in mild distress

    I ordered a Pinguicula moctezumae in the mail. It's a little bit sad looking. I took a leaf that had roots attached from the P. moctezumae and stuck that pulling in my Aphrodites pot, and another leaf came loose during potting so I have back ups in WCS. I potted it up in peat and pumice with...
