A total newbie here. Bought my first ping, did some research and discovered that this hybrid is highly unlikely. It has been listed as Sethos x Primuliflora (from a reputable nursery, by the way).
Can you please help me to ID this ping? I am asking because I would like to know how to better take care of it. Right now it's planted in moss. My understanding is if it's Mexican ping, I need to repot it.

I'm assuming that your lighting changed the ping's color, but it's still P. Sethos x Primulifora.
The shape of the leaves still resemble the plant that you bought.

I've seen pings do well in pure long fibered sphagnum moss, but you can change the soil if you'd like.
