So I've read the Savage Garden, and Cultivating Carnivorous Plants by Natch Greys.
I was wondering if there would be any books that go into more in depth for some parts; for example, I was super interested recently into different kinds of pinguicula soil mixes and learned about turface and limestone amendments, or pinguicula rocks with different kinds of rocks such as lava rock, pumice, etc. There also isn't a ton about dormancy, like what temperatures to avoid in dormancy, etc; they both do give very great general advice but I like details haha about cultivation but care "less" about each individual species as described in both books if that makes sense?
I'm also super into mexican pinguicula, so if there is only a specific book for that I would be super interested as well.
