Plant details
Meet this plant.
Pinguicula gigantea red x cyclosecta is a beautiful hybrid created under the Rainbow nursery that can turn olive/reddish/dark brown under intense full-spectrum lights. This pinguicula is seed-grown, and we have observed a few variations in the plant's color. Some of them turn dark olive, others dark brown and some a bit reddish. The flower that we have seen is dark violet with veining all over, but since they are seed-grown, some flower variation may be present as well. Please keep that in mind when ordering. Please add calcium to this hybrid for optimal growing conditions.
You'll get a similar plant to the ones in the pictures. Please note that some plants are greener than others but will turn pinkish/reddish under intense light. You'll get a plant similar to the one in picture.
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.
Plants are about 1-2" in diameter (Please read)
The plant has been growing under LED lights with a temperature of 75~80° during the day and 55~70° at night.

Questions about plant options, delivery, tracking, or an order? Inty is here to help before and after your purchase.
Will my plant look exactly like the photo?
Live plants naturally vary in height, branching, leaf count, color, and shape. Photos show the variety and typical presentation.
Can items arrive separately?
Yes. Plants can have different preparation times and packaging needs, so one order may receive more than one tracking number.
What should I do when it arrives?
Unpack promptly, inspect the plant, water only when needed, and let it acclimate before making major care changes.
