Leaf Pullings for Propagating

[Muckydoo]

What happens when you press a little bit to hard on an P. esseriana 'Giant' in winter rosette?

They explode.
I just tossed them in here for now, but I think I'll need to make another propagation cup for all these.

 

[Stini]

this is a first for me. I broke off half of a leaf while making pullings and from what I know is you need that white tip to propagate..... well that broken piece made a baby

Yep, I recall reading a Facebook post about someone cutting their leaves in half to prop. Never did try it.

I've noticed that some Pings grow shoots from the tip of the leaf, if the base is dying back.

Pinguicula agnata x Anpa C is able to propagate the same way, with piece of broken leaf.

Quote from above article:

"I also discovered that like most Mexican Pinguicula, our native P . planifolia were capable of producing plantlets or pups from leaves that were very carefully removed from the mother plant and dipped in a rooting hormone (at the time I was using Rootone®)."

Yes it works I have a few hundreds Pinguicula planifolia in vitro and funny that you asked because this morning I discovered many leafs that fell in the media last time while planting Ping in new vessel and they produced babies aswell.

If you are into shipping I would like to purchase a couple!

Can confirm it also works with temperate pings like P. macroceras. I have used the leaves from hibernacula when they are dormant in the same way as one would use succulent phase leaves from the Latin American pings. I have had success even without rooting hormone. I just made sure to peel it off in a way that the leaves retained some meristematic tissue.

I have seen it with Pinguicula grandiflora in vitro. The plants were active when I started the in vitro and last week I repotted the Ping in new media for in vitro and they were many hibernacula. I noticed the roots system is different with hardy Ping in vitro, the roots are stronger, darker and go deeper
