Dear All,

First of all, I'd like to thank Juerg for his beautiful pictures which, I
am sure, will help all of us to cope with the multitude of temperate Ping
species.
But looking at the pictures, I noticed something. There seems to be a
particular tropical species called P. utricularioides. Where does this name
come from, and what does this plant look like ?

Second question. Fernando, in his European trip 1 story, talked about Juerg
Steiger's impressive method for growing CPs. Looking at the cultivated
plants on the photos, it seems to be pretty efficient. Juerg, could you
please explain the way you grow temperate Pings ?

Happy growing,

Gilles
