Very nice setup! I've been wanting to add a few pings to my collection.. just not sure which ones to start with. You do have some nice ones though. Congrats!

Hey yinepu, P. moranesis is also a really easy one to grow that's easy to get a hold of. And thanks for the info Grey! I think my pings are slowly waking up, but I can't tell yet. My P. longifolia are out of dormancy almost, the temps are a little cool though. One thing I noted was that as soon as I gave my temperate sundews water, within a day or two they started showing signs of coming out of dormancy.
Anyways, keep us updated on your pings, I'd love to see them flower!

Oh yes I can't wait to see if they flower. My temperate Pings are still progressing nicely however my Mexican varieties are a lot slower. I'm toying with their requirements a little to see what is more effective. I think once the sunnier days head over here (if they do.. good old Britain) then they'll look better. They are still doing handstands.

Thanks for the comments =].

Just a quick update: I think I may have figured out why my plants are doing "hand stands". I believe they might be dividing. I had a close look at one of the plants today and it looks as though the leaves that are sticking out are forming a twin rosette. Looking at the others, the sticking-out leaves appear to be starting to tilt to one side like the suspicious plant I just mentioned. Hmm..

Here's hoping!
