They secrete a sticky mucilage from their leaves that traps small insects like fungus gnats and mosquitoes. This mucilage can give the leaves an oily appearance and feel, shedding some light on the genus name which translates to \"little oily one.\" The flowers on \u003cem\u003ePinguicula spp.\u003c\/em\u003e are orchid-like and can last for weeks! These plants are very easy to care for and are beginner friendly.

The exact genetics are unknown, but the theory is (\u003cem\u003ePinguicula agnata\u003c\/em\u003e 'Scented Flower' x \u003cem\u003eP. gigantea\u003c\/em\u003e) x (\u003cem\u003eP. gigantea \u003c\/em\u003ex \u003cem\u003eP. emarginata\u003c\/em\u003e). A complex hybrid for sure! This hybrid was named for his mother, Riva. The foliage ranges from pale green to burgundy, depending on lighting. The stronger the light, the more red the plants! The flowers, which can last for a month per bloom, have a purple ring and veining into white edges to give almost the appearance of an ink spill surrounding the yellow center. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCarnivorous plants are pet safe, so no worries here! These plants are much more dangerous to insects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlants will be shipped bare root and are suitable for a 2 to 3 inch pot. Photos are representative and some natural variation should be expected. Regular potting soil contains fertilizers which will kill carnivorous plants.
