Pinguicula x “Lavender Mist” BARE ROOT
If you love an extra dewy ping, this ethereal beauty is for you! There’s something exceptional about Pinguicula x “Lavender Mist” and its soft purple flowers, covered in dew, and its soft green glistening rosettes!
The flowers on this ping open a grape purple and slowly fade to a light lavender with a white, dewy throat. These large flowers are long petaled and swept back and it’s an easy bloomer. This is a sp Koehrs x sp sumidero and this is one of our first Koehrs hybrids!
These plants have a winter succulent phase in which they shed their carnivorous leaves and grow smaller succulent leaves. They greatly reduce in size, shrinking down to a tiny, cute little succulent rosette! If you order in winter, you plant will come in a tiny succulent rosette. But don’t worry, with proper conditions it will soon grow much larger carnivorous leaves and surprise you with its fantastically quick growth!
THIS PLANT WILL NOT COME POTTED, YOU WILL NEED TO POT IT UPON ARRIVAL. MEXICAN/TROPICAL PINGUICULA PREFER OUR SANDY PINGUICULA SOIL MIX.
