    Next on Springer: "My Nepenthes is a TRANNY!"

    I've heard rumors about this happening, but I wonder if any of you have seen this occur in your own plants: gender switching.

    Aristolochia thread

    Pinguicula gigantea in flower

    Anyones P. gigantea flowering? Mine is currently in bud. I'd like to either receive pollen in exchange for half of any resulting seed, or send pollen in exchange for half of any resulting seed. Weather is iffy on my end, so I'm not sure how viable this is. Just thought I'd inquire. Thanks TF!
