Pinguicula primuliflora, Primrose Butterwort, Southern Butterwort
Pinguicula primuliflora, also known as the Southern Butterwort and Primrose Butterwort, is a charming carnivorous plant native to North America. With its rosette of succulent leaves adorned with sticky glands, it lures, traps, and consumes insects. Delicate purple flowers bloom atop slender stems, adding to its allure. Loved for its ease of care and insect-catching prowess, Pinguicula primuliflora makes an enchanting addition to carnivorous plant collections. We recommend the Pot and Soil - Sarracenia/Flytraps/Drosera for this butterwort since it is a temperate Pinguicula. It prefers to stay on the wetter side.
This product is considered a Temperate Tropical plant. Please see our Shipping and Guarantees policy for cold/hot weather shipping guidelines.
