Pinguicula ‘El Mirador’

Size and packing method: You will receive a bare root plant about 0.5 inches in diameter, carefully wrapped in a damp paper towel. If selecting with soil mix, you will receive a little over one cup of our prepackaged Mexican Butterwort Potting Mix in addition to the bare root plant. This quantity of soil is roughly enough to fill one 2.5 x 2.5 x 3.5 inch square pot. Growing requirements Mature size: About 1 inch in diameter Light: Partial to full sun or grow light equivalent Soil: Mexican Butterwort Potting Mix Feeding: Feed bugs, dried bloodworms, fish food, or diluted foliar fertilizer such as Maxsea every 2-3 weeks Humidity: 50-80% with adequate airflow Water: While in its carnivorous phase, provide enough distilled water for the media to remain damp. Reduce watering and allow the media to dry out regularly once the succulent rosette begins to form. Temperature: 55-85°F Dormancy: Technically none, however carnivorous leaves are replaced by a smaller semi-succulent rosette for part of the year Planting and adjustment instructions will be included with your shipment.
