The leaves are very sticky and captures lots of gnats, mosquitoes, and fruit flies. The plant can grow up to 5 inches across. It also looks like a flower until you see it produce an actual flower. It's like a flower within a flower. Butterwortception!

As advertised
Plant came quickly in the mail, packaged well, and has so far thrived on a diet of fungus gnats. Would order again. In fact, probably will.

Gina arrives - move over aphrodite
Beautiful rosette - cute as the picture. Sorry aphrodite, but Gina is cuter and more shapely. I love the size, about 2" across as it fits my windowsill. Was packed to perfection which she deserves. Growing well, 1 month later in same pot is was shipped in. The leaves - so round and cute.

Pretty plant, packaged well
The Pinguicula x Gina arrived safely and was packaged so well that it didn't look like it went through shipping. It was also a very pretty plant, just as described and looked like the picture that was on site. Will be looking to purchase more pinguiculas in the future.
