Welp, this is a first! I have my first Pinguicula!!! So here’s the thing, I don’t know the ID I will post pictures. I am also going to repot it, do I just repot in the traditional Cp mix or something else? And also how easy are they to grow and can I grow them on my windowsill till it’s nice out?
Ps, is that tiny plant also a ping??

the person who proposed it to you, did not tell you which species it is

without flower difficult to determinate .

wait for the good weather to take it out, then following the species (you have to see the flower), or you leave it outside or you bring it back in the winter.

the tiny plant may be a ping, you have to let it grow a little

That kind of resembles a Primuliflora, since I know that species often grows plantlets from the tips of its leaves.
