These three are 2cms (0.8") below surface just pondering if it's warm enough to come out yet. P. grandiflora and vulgaris broke surface some time ago.  They're depicted now more open as I had to check for eggs, I found some too with the little shells already formed. The snails don't seem to mind depositing in ready made holes. |

you do not relieved around your hibernaculae ? I believe you mean removing the gemmae. I'm not sure why you ask as there are no gemmae in the photo. I remove gemmae when they form in the autumn carefully using curved tweezers. This leaves the roots undisturbed and the plant able to pull itself down in the medium to overwinter. |

Bonjour
no, clean a little around the hibernaculum to prevent it from being smothered.
I always do this ,on all my temperate ping .

no, clean a little around the hibernaculum to prevent it from being smothered. No, never. I don't see the point of changing a condition that is perfectly natural. I prefer to leave plants as much in their natural condition as possible. After all they have far more experience than we do. Rather than look at the situation as smothering I tend to regard it as the plant utilising natural insulation |

Bonjour like you want , it is your choice for me there is a risk of smothering. In France, many populations of Pinguicula disappear like this, especially in plain as vulgaris and lusitanica ,for example on my department where we have been forced to restored sites. for corsica, all do not grow 'in situ' in those background  may be on the podzol and even this year I'm going to see 'in situ' some populations corsica ( type, subsp pallidula, subsp caerulescens ), then I would have a better idea of their backgrounds jeff |

If we all grew plants exactly the same there wouldn't be a lot to discuss. It's always personal choice.
