Hi Willy - Nicely grown plants, as always. Do you know what the "G2" designation is from? I know early on Peter D'Amato used a lettering system for the P. moranensis that came his way. Most have been moved to other species, with A, D, E, G, & J remaining. So, I was just curious if you know where the "G2" designation originated. If not, no worries.

Since there are more than one P. moranensis in my collection, I need to label them differently.
It's just a notation that Hal uses; that Ping is from him so I'm just labeling it as G1, G2 like Hal does for his Pings.
If anyone knows the exact name/ cultivator I'd be very grateful!

Hi Hal - Sounds like a straightforward system to me.

Beautiful plants Willy! It's kind of funny that some of these hungry carnivores look so delicate and pretty. Before, when I thought carnivorous plant, I pictured the blood red pitchers and toothy fly traps. And the bitey pipe flower from Mario Kart. These guys are so innocent looking!

I agree, Sarah!
That's one of the reasons I like Pinguiculas, they look so cute and innocent!
If I have not learned about them, I wouldn't believe that they are so effective at trapping and eating small bugs like gnats and springtails.
