Looking for P. Aphrodite

[Baylorguy]

I recently lost mine due to brownings heart disease. You can look on my list for what I have to trade, but I primarily have spares of Drosera filiformis and Drosera prolifera. I also have some small flytrap typicals.

I would prefer something fairly established.

brownings heart disease sounds serious!

 

[Baylorguy]

It does sound dramatic, doesn't it

Here is a link if you would like to read up on it:

One will be on the way, soon.

Thanks for the link on diseases. I noticed there is one about "holes in the leaves". As I recall someone was asking about this problem in the Pinguicula forum - the culprit appears to be fungus - Borytis or Trichoderma. I kid you not.

I lost a Pinguicula cyclosecta to the browning heart disease.

NAN -

I too have lost a few. I had one ping that started getting these mysterious brown dots that looked like rot but it was a very, very slow death. It seems to actually start in the leaves and then move to the crown. Needless to say, I felt helpless.
