Sandpaper VFT at nursery?

Which nursery, or garden center do you buy a "ping" from. By the way what is "ping" whats there real name other than sandpaper VFT.
 
i dont currently have any "pinguicula" but I plan to get one. Also called a 'butterwort'...haven't ever heard of sandpaper vft

o and vft is venus flytrap ( i wasnt sure if you knew that not to mock you or anything...but it took me a while to figure out abbreviations too like sase-self addressed stamped envelope)
You may be able to buy a ping from the petflytrap in a few weeks, but they said theyre out for now...so i'm going to wait a little bit too...
o yeah and pings usually have pretty flowers too. Not too sure if its much like it, but i thought of pings sort of like orchids, with leaves close to the ground usually and a long stem with flowers but i guess many plants can look like that
 
oops...it looks like they wont have any pings until september...
 
PFT (petflytrap) sells pings on a reqular bases. If you would like to get startd on easy pings, try reasearching on the follwoing and pic the one that suits you:

P.emarganta
P.ionantha
P.primiflora

the above seem to be the easier pings out there.
 
Thought I would post a picture of my Pinguicula.

Argh, another double post. Why is this happening?
 
I'm asking which nursery. Not petflytrap, they dont have any!
 
We'll have some next week.... I believe the moranensis and primuliflora.

Look for it around Thursday or Friday.
