Light and water should be ok, maybe because of high temperatures? Edited August 31, 2017 by domi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
werds Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 No, just a normal thing, i think gypsicola is one of the firsts Mexican Pinguicula to go dormant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

manders Posted August 31, 2017 Report Share Posted August 31, 2017 Is there anyway to give these guys a longer growing period, warmer, more light etc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz Posted September 1, 2017 Report Share Posted September 1, 2017 mine is still growing and flowering well, grows in a mostly mineral mix which at this time of year is kept quite moist. @domi your mix looks quite chunky/rocky do the roots actually have access to water underneath? It might be worth carefully digging it up to examine what's underneath. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I think that roots have access to water because the rocks are always wet and other pinguiculas in the same pot are doing very well. Btw I will change the mix next spring just to be sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
