Five-petaled flower with two smaller top petals, median side, and a longer notch-tipped bottom petal, all white-lavender etched with bleeding veins of violet, and dark electric violet spots surrounding the white throat
Pinguicula emarginata x sp. Tonala “ANPA A” HC A
Still propagating this one but a couple of its siblings are available in the Shop.

Pink flower with a long spur. Contrasting white streaks lead to the throat.

First flower on Pinguicula “Dragon,” a medusina x moctezumae hybrid.
Due to some soil issues I failed with my first one, but that seems to have been fixed now and not only are there a couple buds developing, but all the leaf pullings took.
#pinguicula #butterwort #carnivorousplants #plants #botany
A white flower with five rounded petals and a yellow center. The throat is sparsely hairy, and transitions to purple further inside the flower.
A side profile of the flower reveals a short nectar spur connected at the end of a slightly bent corolla tube.
#Pinguicula mirandae
#Butterwort #Lentibulariaceae #CarnivorousPlant #bloomscrolling
White five-petalled flower with a yellow throat and a dark purple stigma. Faint purple veins creep across each petal.
A developing flower emerges from the center of a compact succulent rosette. The top surface of each leaf glistens with numerous dew-tipped glands.
#Pinguicula nivalis x emarginata K3
#Butterwort #Lentibulariaceae #CarnivorousPlant #flower
A white flower with five rounded petals. The tips of each petal are faintly pink and the center of the flower is bright yellow with a hairy throat.

Shared this flower before, but as it’s expanded it’s become the most electric fuchsia bloom I’ve had so far. Pinguicula emarginata x moctezumae HC C.
#pinguicula #butterwort #flowers #carnivorousplants #plants #botany #horticulture
White, five-petalled flower with purple veins and a yellow throat. The edges of the petals are jagged and irregular.

Been a long time since I have done an update on the pingdom but these things have gotten huge. I have recently gotten some new pings as well and will be making my second bowl soon! (ignore the upset moss)
#pinguicula #butterwort #pingdom #houseplants
New flower: Pinguicula emarginata x moctezumae, HC C!
Quite similar in appearance to A, which is the only other one to bloom so far, but with slightly larger, and slightly more veined petals.
#pinguicula #butterwort #carnivorousplant #plants #botany #flowers #strangeplants
A flower of Pinguicula gigantea with a green center and white petals. The veins are clearly visible, appearing as dark lines, due to backlighting.
#Pinguicula gigantea
#CarnivorousPlant #Butterwort
A five-lobed flower with broader two upper lobes and narrower lower, veined and blushed in various shades of purples with the darkest spots along the base edges of the lobes.
Pinguicula emarginata x moranensis ‘Huahuapan’ HC D, the darkest violet and veiniest of the four siblings I kept. The flower pales a bit with age but not much.
#pinguicula #butterwort #carnivorousplants #plants #flowers #botany
Pinguicula emarginata x rotundiflora Aramberri HC B, a likely future cultivar. I can’t not call this thing “Pinkeye”

New video out! Midweek extra is a plant spotlight on Pinguicula heterophylla!

I recommend Pinguicula as a gnat-catcher and people question it. Here's what a Pinguicula Aphrodite looks like to a gnat.
#carniverousplants #crystalshop #pinguicula #butterwort #witchesofbluesky
Pinguicula emarginata x sp. Tonala “ANPA A”, HC C Five petal lobes on both flowers, the largest at the bottom with a slight notch in it, the central yellow throat ringed in deep purple, and the white petals very faintly etched in purple veins here and there.
P. (rotundiflora x gracilis) x emarginata HC D Squat five-lobed flower with paler white lower lobes and lavender pink uppers laced in slightly darker veins, a halo of violet around the center.
P. emarginata x rotundiflora Aramberri, Nuevo León HC B (I think) Very broad ruffly petals that overlap each other, white with a pale lavender lattice throughout and a faint purple spotting around the throat.
emarginata x rotundiflora HC D, has notably smaller upper lobes than lower and more distinct veins, magenta-purple halo in the center and a yellow slash at the base of the lower middle lobe.
Handful of butterworts all with emarginata parentage, and all but the first has rotundiflora parentage too. One more pic in replies of what I think is one of the best clones I’ve produced.
#pinguicula #butterwort #carnivorousplants #plants #botany #horticulture #gardening
Fleshy pink rosettes of gland-covered leaves, sparsely dotted with dead fungus gnats. Tufts of moss sprout from moist soil.
#Pinguicula moranensis J

Butterwort plant in potted soil with moss and baby ferns
My #butterwort has some happy plant friends 😁 #ferns #moss #carnivorousplants
Rich purple, bilaterally symmetrical flower white throat spot.
Summer rosette of fleshy green leaves. The margins curl slightly upward, and the upper surfaces of the leaves are covered in glandular hairs.
Closeup of the glandular hairs. Each drop of mucilage catches the light and sparkles.
Compact winter rosette, partially buried in the soil. Larger summer leaves (old) can be seen around the margin of the rosette, as well new larger leaves emerging from the center.
#Pinguicula macrophylla flowered! This #butterwort produces a very tight winter rosette, however, the summer leaves are comparatively expansive (35-175 mm long and 25-70 mm wide; Lampard et al., 2016). I managed a couple photos of the glandular hairs, too! #CarnivorousPlant
Small five-petalled white flower with green, hairy throat.
Large fleshy green leaves covered in tiny, mucilage-tipped hairs. Several fungus gnats can be seen adhered to the leaf surfaces.
#Pinguicula gigantea is a large #butterwort species that traps small flies in sticky mucilage, like fly paper. It is easy to maintain, but it requires R.O. or distilled water. As an added benefit (for insect control), this species is homophyllous; it retains its sticky leaves year round.
#butterwortwednesday and pinguicula primuflora.
Found in coastal areas of the Florida panhandle into Louisiana, flower nearly year round, and a great starter ping for your collection!

Pinguicula ANPA 'A' x weser 'Big Veiny', after a summer rain. I was afraid the downpour would destroy the flower, but this one made it through just fine.

I REALLY like pings. Got a fungus gnat issue? Get pings. Really hope my local shop gets in some new varieties soon cause I've had bad luck with shipping in the past and pretty hesitant to order pings through the mail. Think this bowl is around 1 month old.
