Hi everyone,

I have a Pinguicula Gigantea and it started flowering. I wonder whether self-pollination is possible for it.

Thank you.

Mexican Pinguicula typically don't self-pollinate, but you may be able to pollinate the flower manually by using its own pollen if you're careful and catch it in time. You can find some information on pollinating a Ping flower here: http://www.flytrapcare.com/phpBB3/polli ... 22465.html

Congratulations on the stalk!
