Picture of the day!

P. agnata 'Scented Flower' got it's rosette looking normal finally, but these flowers are just goofy

Funky pinguicula estrellita conjoined flower

 

[Muckydoo]

I love when flowers go crazy, always fun to see.

Just founded this P. ehlersiae 'Tolantonga' with a goofy flower.

 

[Muckydoo]

One of these things is not like the other....

Somehow this little P. gypsicola X moctezumae found a home in my P. 'Lavender Lacewing' pot.

 

[Muckydoo]

Well, I'm not sure how to tackle this one... I feel like I'm going to end up as a father of a hundred children.

 

[Muckydoo]

Thought this little guy was interesting. His root dove down into the soil and then bounced back up. Fairly long root for the size of the plant.

 

[Muckydoo]

Impressed with the roots on this P. ibarrae.

 

[Muckydoo]

Another mutant flower, but this one is perfectly symmetrical!
It's from the same plant that had the flower stem that was fused to a leaf.

P. 'Aphrodite'

 

[Muckydoo]

Carrying on with the theme of goofy flowers.

P. martinezii

 

[Muckydoo]

Doing some repotting...
I feel like I should keep this fern somewhere just because it tried so hard.

Re: March 5th post: I have a few pots with tight multiples too. How will you safely separate your "little family"? Initially I considered loosening them in water but was concerned about them being too wet and developing rot.

 

[Muckydoo]

Brute force. When there is that many, you just have to pry it apart with some tweezers. I have some good tweezers with a fine point, and I use that to kind of snip off pieces of the "core" and pluck the divisions off. I didn't do it yet, but maybe I'll document it when I do!

 

[Lloyd Gordon]

A lot of plants, if you more or less carefully/gently pull/pry them apart, they will separate into viable divisions. With Heli's, for example, it can seem a bit brutal, sort of like taking apart a puzzle. It's a bit of an art, which you pick up from experience.

P. gigantea - It's been flowering non stop all winter, I think this is it's 9th straight flower.

 

[Muckydoo]

I always know when P. gypsicola is getting ready for summer. They start to puff up turning into a little volcano.

The sundews are enjoying the longer day's we've been getting! The young flower stalks on this Drosera burmanni remind me of a fern's fiddlehead.

 

[dewy]

Tubers!

 

[Muckydoo]

The TC pings are acclimating, but are still confused on where the roots go. Hint: Those one should go down and grab some rocks.

 

[Lloyd Gordon]

Interesting. My ping roots are usually in the air and don't have root hairs.

Most don't seem to have hairs, but when I repot, there are always a few that are clinging to lava rock
