Butterwort (Pinguicula moranensis 'G')

A plant that is very easy to grow. The sticky leaves will help control fungus gnats within the home. This butterwort is a rapid divider and is not picky about lighting, humidity or soil. I have even grown it in straight potting soil and watered with tap water and it still does well. The flowers are abundant and lovely!

Butterwort (Pinguicula 'Apasionada')

A wonderful hybrid between Pinguicula gigantea and Pinguicula moctezumae, this is a very easy plant to grow and does an especially good job of controlling pesky fungus gnats among houseplants in normal indoor settings. An added bonus is the attractive growth habit and foliage as well as the amazingly beautiful violet-like blooms.
