Pinguicula agnata f. red leaf (El lobo, Mexico)

• At Cultivo, every release is carefully selected and grown with purpose. We don’t mass restock - most plants are small-batch, seasonal or one-of-a-kind “exact plant pictured” pieces. Once they’re sold, they’re truly gone. That’s why you won’t see a typical “email me when available” option on these listings
• Some seasonal items or small-batch variants may return in the future. If that happens, we’ll update the original listing with new photos and details
• 🔔 For updates on new and rare arrivals, keep an eye on our New Arrivals Collection or join our VIP list above.

Due to import restrictions, mexican butterworts are rare amongst collectors in South Africa.  We are pleased to offer you a select few from those still around, these are considered once off deals and only available while stocks last

DESCRIPTION

• Large variety mexican butterwort species with location data 
• This is a high end, near flowering size collectors item and you will receive the exact plant pictured - Note that butterworts have very shallow roots and are therefor sent bareroot, packed and protected to minimise damage

 PLANT CARE

• Grow butterworts in partial sun or very bright filtered light and keep the soil only damp to the touch, year round
• Great for beginners, mexican butterworts are easy to grow and fantastic candidates for a sunny windowsill or protected area outdoors with moderate to bright light
• To prevent rot, pinguicula prefers a loose, open soil with a good balance between water retention and drainage.  We use our Butterwort PROmix for all our mexican butterworts, with excellent results

Winter dormancy

• During the autumn and winter months, butterworts die back significantly to a tight rosette with tiny non-carnivorous leaves, making them appear much smaller than listed
• Larger growth (sizes as indicated) in the form of new summer leaves are expected during late spring
