Question
Pinguicula Primuliflor
Hello
I was playing on re-potting my Pinguicula Primuliflora when I re-pot my other Carnivorous plants early Spring. I know your suppose to re-pot Pinguculas when they're dormant but my Ping is far from dormant, told by it's non stop flowers. The pot I wanted to re-pot it in is a material I think you can't use with Carnivorous plants. It seems like a clay material but I'm not sure I'll post a picture and maybe you'll be able to tell.
(The pot has a smooth surface inside and outside of the pot I'm not sure if that matters or not.)
AnswerHi Justin,
This is a glazed ceramic pot, and it's just fine. Does it have a drain hole?
P. primuliflora will keep growing in the winter if temperatures are not too low. Technically, it is a temperate plant (I have many outside in mini-bogs), but it also behaves like a tropical. It's one of those plants that can grow indoors or out. The Fork-leaf sundews (D. binata complex) are like this also.
Good Growing!
