Hello CP-growers,

I am new on this mailing list and I have been asked to give
a short introduction. Here it is.
Before I came to Finland I have been growing carnivorous plants
in Germany for over 10 years. After moving here, which is place
of 100000 citizens called Oulu and approximately 120 km south
of the northern polar circle, I gave up my hobby due to lack of
space and equipment. ( and of course the inconvenience of moving
my plants 2300 km )
Now after getting myself established here I am considering to
start again. In fact I already have three D. binatas on my window-
sill.

So far north, where it is almost 23 hours dark in winter in 23 hours
sun in summer, im of course especially interested in the local flora
which means first of all Pinguicula villosa.

Can anybody provide information on Pinguicula villosa ?

Any kind of hints are highly appreciated.

Regards

Michael
