Pinguicula primuliflora



1979 20th August 2007 17th April 2010 4th September 2007 24th July 2007
This plant grows naturally along the central section of the Gulf Coast in the United States. It has pink flowers with a white throat, though it never flowered for me.
I was given this piece by Martin Cheek in 1979 and it prospered for several years, but I don't have it now. When I moved away from my heated greenhouse, I gave it away to a friend with better growing facilities.

...and earlier this year I was given this one. It has grown far better since I put a cover over it to boost the humidity and raised the water level. Survived the winter without damage when temperatures in the greenhouse dropped to -5degC.
