It is! I'm hoping to colonize the whole pot eventuallySweet flower. Tiny plant!
HahaSomeone gave me a Ping recently, but I have no idea how to grow it.

Well what kind of ping is it? If you don't know, a picture could help
If it's a Mexican Pinguicula, just keep it in a tray and water it with distilled /rain water unless you have soft water in which case I envy you
They'll do well on a windowsill, under lights, possibly outside though I don't know how they'll handle frosts - probably not well
In winter this group can form succulent growth and like to have water withheld similar to many dendrobium spp

You can keep it pretty wet as long as it's in some kind of airy medium. If it's a Mexican Pinguicula, Sphagnum can rot it unfortunately.Interesting. I don't know what kind it is. I was told to keep it wet, so I did, but probably too wet. I accidentally knocked it over, it fell out of the pot, and it is a bit smashed up. There are very few roots, mostly mush. I repotted it in moist sphagnum and hope it will grow new roots.
It does seem to be quite succulent, so I appreciate your recommendation of less water in winter.

Pinguicula immaculata is not a commonly grown species - especially in the U.S.
This cute little one is a Mexican Pinguicula that likes slightly drier conditions than usual.
Sweet flower. Tiny plant!
If it survives the storm I'll be trying to spread it around to a bunch of growers if I canI want one!
I'd bet on at least 4I could kill it in three hours

Glad you like it!That's a neat little plant.

Did it come from me? The Mexican ones are incredibly easy to grow, just keep them moist. They fall out of the pots, it is how they propagate themselves. No worries, just put it back in. Never have more than just wee little roots.
