Subject: Ping observations

A couple of questions:
My Pinguicula heterophylla has produced an offset from the tip of an old
leaf that bent over and touched the substrate. I knew that this
behavior was common in Pinguicula primuliflora but haven't noticed it in
any other of my Mexican pings. Is it more common than I realized?

Flowers of Pinguicula moranensis 'G' from Peter D'Amato invariably seem
to have a tiny fork at the tip of the nectar spur. Several other
unnamed clones of Pinguicula moranensis that I grow have simple pointed
spurs. Is the fork just an oddity of this clone, or might it be
indicative of more important differences between plants labeled P.
moranensis?

cheers,
Nick
