Pinguicula lauena x gypsicola is an in-house hybrid created at Rainbow in 2023. This particular hybrid produces elongated reddish leaves under strong light. The plants have not flowered yet, but we'll update them once we get some flowers. (Please keep in mind that they are seed grown, therefore, some flower/plant variation may occur).
The plants on the pictures are representative, you will get a similar plant. [Plants are not flowering at the moment]
You'll get a similar plant to the ones in the picture. Please note that some plants are greener than others but will turn pink/reddish under intense lights.
The plants are shipped bare root in a plastic container to protect the plants. We ship the plants on Monday and Wednesday to avoid the weekend cut off.
The plant's size is about 1" in diameter.
PLEASE READ BELOW:
It is strongly recommended to get a heating pack during the winter to protect your plant from low temperatures, we are not responsible for dead plants that did not have a heating pack during transit. 1 heating pack per order is enough.
