For all you mexican ping lovers-  What do you think the most dramatic ping cross is- or would be -if they were crossed??
My vote is emarginata x moranensis alba.  I don't know if it's ever been done, but I would hope for large white flowers heavily veined with purple. like a giant emarginata!

Nice job Stephen!
Have you flowered it yet?

I love my own cross Pinguicula emarginata × laueana 'Crimson Flower'. It's the first hybrid I've ever done myself and grown to adulthood, so I'm very proud of it.

Very nice Sebulon!
Did all plants flower out the same (size, color, and veining)?

Actually that was the only plant that survived when my seedtray got dry...    So it has to be the alpha male.

Take care of that alpha!
