That is a lovely flower, stitz! Congratulations! I'm glad to see the P. Weser doing so well in a terrarium environment, though I didn't have any doubts with it being in your care =] I hope it continues to do beautifully for you.

Heh. All eighty or so of my adult pinguicula are on my windowsill, my youngins are under lights. I think you just need a well-placed windowsill to get pings to grow properly in the UK without artificial lighting - still, it looks lovely so no point fixing what isn't broken! :D

Hahah. Hey, I divided up my P. Weser earlier this year and now have 30odd! My dormant P. Emarginata has divided and both divisions are currently flowering, alongside my P. Ibarrae which hasn't stopped flowering since I received it several months ago!

I don't think the triffids that'll take over the world will be mutated venus fly traps but rather an army of pinguicula! Run to the hills - oh wait, they're there too D:!

Good luck with your babies!
