Forbes Posted July 22, 2005 Report Share Posted July 22, 2005 Here are some pictures of a typical Pinguicula macroceras subsp. nortensis site Noah and I visited earlier this month in Del Norte Co., California. The first pictures are of nearly vertical walls of serpentine rock with lithophytic Pinguicula. The last few pictures were taken a short distance down the road where the plants grow in seeps in somewhat unstable serpentine gravel. I include the first picture only because it illustrates how water is slowly dripping on and around the plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BonnieJohnson Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 There's also a gorgeous site by a river in Northern California.. I can't recall the name of the river now.. but I know I've heard other people talk about the same spot. Is this the only place you guys saw Pinguicula macroceras subsp. nortensis? I liked the other site best because there were so many Darlingtonia growing in with the Pinguicula. It's incredible how red Darlingtonia is in full sun.
