During cooler months, the plant forms a compact rosette of smaller, smooth leaves. In warmer months, it grows larger leaves covered in tiny sticky glands that help trap and digest insects. These sticky leaves may feel slightly tacky—that’s completely normal and how the plant feeds. When mature, it sends up tall flower stalks with delicate, orchid-like blooms, most commonly in shades of purple, but sometimes pink or white. 🌈 Important Info (Please Read) ⚠️ 🔥 It is strongly recommended to purchase a heat pack during winter Protects your plant from cold damage during shipping We are not responsible for plants damaged by cold without a heat pack 1 heat pack per order is sufficient for up to 8 plants 🌈 Final Notes You’ll receive a plant similar to the photos Size may vary slightly depending on plant's phase (succulent/active grow phase) A fun and rewarding plant for both beginners and collectors 🌈🌿 Pinguicula (Butterwort) Care Guide 🌱 Plant Size About 1" in diameter ☀️ Light Bright light is best!
