Pics are a few weeks old by now but they look pretty similar now. Petioles are a little more present than normal since I received these in may, and did not burry the bulb, just set them on the pot, so the heart of the plant is closer to the surface than normal.

Looks so strange and amazing!
Can't wait to get my first ping, but there's a thing where I'm not at home for 2 weeks to care for it during acclimation, unfortunately.

Is it a mexican ping?

It is a Mexican Ping. Mexican Pinguicula are not the Pings I'm mainly interested in but this one certainly is special.

Many of my Pinguicula are a bit late to succulent stage, even ones on the drier side. I have not noticed stronf light to bother this species, unlike other shade-growing species, like P. rotundifolia.
