P. agnata - colored variety

[dvg]

Grew these P. agnata out from seed.

They all turned out to be quite similar in appearance.

This plant is the darkest of the batch.

Both pots together.

Know any reason why the darkest one is larger than the rest? Genetics? Fert. more? Different media?

 

[Huntsmanshorn]

Beautiful color DVG. Pinguicula release compounds that inhibit the growth of their neighbors. So that is the likely reason that the compot plants are smaller.

Thanks for all of your comments.

It is an all mineral mix composed of coarse sand, lava and pumice.

It was the robust clone of the bunch, always was darker and had to deal with only one weaker potmate.

Hi Jeff,

These pots and another are all being grown under either T8 or T12 6500k 4' tubes.

The color comes on as the plants become larger and more mature.

And yes these plants were all grown from seed.

Maybe burgundy in late fall filtered sunlight.

Here's a comparison pic with P. colimensis under 6500k daylight fluoros.

These plants are grown under either T8 or T12 2 tube 4' fluorescent fixtures.

These are perennial plants, and because the plants are so similar, i definitely believe these are reproducible again from seed...something i am currently working on.

As for growing them without tubes, that is something i haven't yet tried.

Here are some pics of this plant's just opened flower.

These plants were sown from seed just over a year ago, and the two biggest plants are now flowering.

This one is working on its fourth flower.

The same flower from above, grown out a bit more.

Another plant has just opened another flower.

It is similar to the first flower shown, except it has much less splotching around the flower opening.
