Mex Ping Winter Growth Photos

[mattshore]

Hi All

Most of my collection are now well into their non-carnivorous/winter growth mode. I have reduced the photoperiod gradually over the last 2 months from 16 hrs to 12 hrs. The cooler weather also helps stimulate their winter growth mode. Here are a few quick shots of how they are looking at the moment. I much prefer their summer growth, but the one advantage of this time of year are the flowers. I noticed several flower stalks coming up at the moment. Thanks for looking.

P. cyclosceta

P. moranensis 'La Vuelta'

Great Pings!
Your P. esseriana look like jamauvensis.
Do you have any flower pics?

Although I have had a few of them flower, I dont have any photos I am afraid. I received this plant from a reliable source and so had never questioned its identity. There are very few plants labelled P. jamauvensis in NZ, in fact, I only know of one or two growers!

When it flowers next, I will certainly check its ID. Thanks.
