Hi!
Some of my Pinguiculas (P. oaxaca) are having a strange behaviour:
they are growing without touching the ground! They have no roots at all!
This happened when winter began. Till then, they were normal with big
leaves, but as winter arrived, small leaves started to appear and they
released themselves from the soil! Now they have no roots and the strangest
thing is that they are growing! They're just ON the ground!
What's the matter? Is this normal?
