Hi Justin,

Most likely this is Pinguicula primuliflora.  Its leaves look like that species, it's just been in very low light for a long time.  It's also possible it's P. caerulea.  Both look similar.  You can tell them apart when they bloom.  P. primuliflora has purple flowers with a yellow center, and P. caerulea has tall flowers with blueish striping.  Both are from the southeastern U.S.

Good Growing!
