What plant is this?
The app is saying it’s a ping but I’ve never seen it catch anything.

@queencreeep Hello 👋 and welcome to Greg, Andy!
It’s definitely a Pinguicula moranensis var. alba ‘Molango, Mexico’ See pictures.

I see he’s 2 feet from the window. The light strength diminishes VERY quickly as it travels further into the room. I just checked at one of my windows. On the window sill the light registers as 550.4 Fc. Two feet in is only 368.3 Fc. (Those numbers are low because it’s a cloudy, gray day.) In the plant world that’s a huge difference. 🙂 Try moving him as @PoisonIvys suggested. He needs moderately bright light. Definitely not direct sun. Beautiful plant!
@TruthfulApricot thanks for that!! I need to watch my language 😅 I wrote”sun” instead of light. Definitely an important distinction I should have made. I won’t forget again. Sorry guys!! 😅
@TruthfulApricot haha me too!! But if I’m going to give plant advice on the interwebs I need to be specific. That could have bery nearly been fried ping for breakfast if you and @TwistedThreads hadn’t commented 😅
Hi everyone + thank you for the responses! My confusion was mostly due to the leggyness so these are super helpful. He is under a grow light at the 2 ft distance from window but I’ll move him closer and see how he does - the windows in my house are not direct lighting so no worries on the wording @PoisonIvys Is there anything other than that I should be doing special for him? @TruthfulApricot @TwistedThreads
@queencreeep I just noticed in your Oasis that you have a plant labeled wrong, it could have been Greg! Noony is a Dieffenbachia 'Camille'
@TwistedThreads I was debating that!! Ty
