I'm still amazed Maggi, I don't think that without that intuition we would have anywhere near the site we currently have....!!!
He is known as 'Cutesy' but sometimes by his alter ego ( as in this pic ) as 'Spike'. He will hug anyone he can until they give up!!

Thanks, Ron!  The fact that I am so involved does give me a unique overview of the whole kit and caboodle -I've been told that I should get out more - but the world is coming right here - it would be so rude not to be ready with the tea and coffee :D ;)

Although they are never,( maybe too strong, maybe not!! ) seen at any alpine plant show, or discussed in any alpine forum ( see previous statement!!), the majority of Central American Pings are alpine plants I'm sure, certainly not needing any heat here in UK.
e.g. as a start, this travelogue http://www.pinguicula.org/A_world_of_Pinguicula_2/Pages/Postcard_9.htm
