I used the translate button, and it worked great cao .

You have a very nice collection of spiky looking Pinguicula.

Seems like China is a good place to acquire some very nice CPs.

Do you trade plants with other CP hobbyists in China?

Have you been able to import plants in from other countries, at all?

Cheers,
Doug

This clone is slowly winding down its growing season.







But doesn't seem to be in a hurry to make the compact rosette centre yet, either.

Do you have an Instagram page?

[dvg]

Can't recall if i signed up there at one time, but don't use it now at all.

Cheers,

Thought i'd share some of these resting rosettes forming here.

This clone's new leaves are shrinking in size,



so i suppose it has a resting rosette planned out somewhere in the back of its mind.



Meanwhile, one of its sibling counterparts is well ahead of schedule in its 4" pot.

From the flower pic on October 3rd 2021 in this thread; from the seed capsule pic from Oct. 14th, 2021; and from the rosette shown on Dec. 11th, 2021,



these are the only two seedlings that resulted from that pollination attempt.

The seeds were placed on a moist coffee filter, which was then placed atop a folded paper towel.

These were placed into a sealable kitchen bag, and this placed under lights.

Maybe not a complete chameleon, but it does blend in with its surroumdings.



A hairy rosette...

These next two pics are from Jan.19, 2022, the night i decided to shoot some final photos before taking leaf pulls for propagation.



The plant looks healthy enough here but i discovered why it was reluctant to phase into a dormant structure...it was already a dead man walking.



The older leaf pulls all had about a quarter inch of dried brown dead growth at each of their bases.

I started taking more and more of the newer leaves, but sadly they too had begun to brown at their bases as well.

In a last ditch effort to save this clone from being lost forever, i inspected the newest leaves and took a chance at propagating them, including the last two remaining miniscule leaf nibs that i gave very little chance of success because of their diminutive size.

Within days all of the leaf pulls had turned fuzzy grey with fungus...except for those two small and very last leaves.

This is one of them from today, which i am still holding out hope that it will still strike...and there is a small "baby" bump near the base.



Failing that, these two miracle babies are all that will remain of that particular moranensis x heterophylla clone.

One of these clones wants to get started with a flower.



It was left bone dry, but will be given water now.











dvg

[dvg]

Water has been given, and though the flower appears to be in no hurry,



new leaves are now emerging from this "bulb's" crown.














dvg

[dvg]

This rosette's center is readying itself for another season of growth. ( Compare from Feb. 20 above)











dvg

[dvg]

This one has been slow to get up and running this season.



It stalled out when it was plucked out of its pot and was given a very thorough cleaning of its undercarriage.



It seems to be back on pace again now.

[dvg]

The color rendering isn't quite right with this flower being more purple to my eye.
