Pinguicula reticulata

When I received this species it was mislabelled as Pinguicula kondoi. These are unique in several ways, one is that once they are uprooted their leaves are destined to "drop off" if the utmost care is not taken to prevent this happening (the petiole that attaches the leaf to the stem is extremely thin and fragile). I've found that once they grow to the size shown in this photo, they generally remain in bloom. This one and its contemporaries have done so for the past 16 months.
