Description
Mature plants of this species reach about 12" across in leaf span, making this the king of all Pinguicula!
Of the carnivorous plants, Pinguicula is very adept at catching small fungus gnats that might exist in your other plant's potting mix. You can water from above, or below since the foliage covers the entire pot surface. Here at our nursery they just get doused with a water wand and it works fine!
Please Note: The leaves are sensitive and may slightly crack in shipping. However, this is quickly outgrown by the plant. The 'large' size are typically growing in 5 to 6 inch pots with foliage going beyond the pot size.
