Pinguicula 'vallisneriifolia'

Common Name: Butterwort

Family: Lentibulariaceae

Description: Pinguicula 'vallisneriifolia', a striking species of Butterwort, features rosettes of large, glossy, green leaves and stunning, large violet flowers. This carnivorous plant is known for its sticky leaves that trap and digest insects, combining beauty with pest control. Each tissue culture cup (5x7cm) contains 1 - 3 plants, ideal for those seeking to add a unique and functional species to their collection.

Preferred Conditions: Prefers bright, indirect light and thrives in cool to moderate temperatures with high humidity. It is best suited for growth in temperate climates and can be grown indoors or in shaded outdoor areas.

Soil Type: Thrives in a well-draining mix of sphagnum moss and perlite, kept consistently moist.

Acclimatisation: Gradually acclimate to indoor conditions if grown outside of its native habitat, by slowly adjusting the plant to lower humidity levels and indirect lighting.

Care Tips: Water with rainwater or distilled water to prevent mineral buildup. Feeding with small insects can supplement natural prey capture, especially in indoor settings.

Indoor/Outdoor: Ideal for indoor cultivation in terrariums or greenhouses, and can also be placed outdoors in bog gardens or damp, shaded areas during warmer months.

Additional Information: This variety of Butterwort is not only a natural pest deterrent but also a visually appealing addition to any plant enthusiast's collection, thanks to its large, ornamental flowers.
