Pinguicula rectifolia Huajuapan, Oaxaca
Pinguicula rectifolia 'Huajuapan' (originating near Huajuapan de LeΓ³n, Oaxaca, Mexico) is a structurally captivating addition to any carnivorous plant display. This variety is famously distinguished by its unusual summer carnivorous foliage, which develops a pointier, more geometric, kite-like silhouette compared to typical rounded butterworts. The vibrant green leaves act as living flypaper, covered in sticky droplets that easily snare small insects. When it blooms, it pushes up stunning, slender lilac-pink flowers featuring deep crimson highlights at the base and distinctive wide lobes. In winter, it collapses down into a dense, non-carnivorous rosette made of dozens of small succulent leaves to protect itself during dormancy.
Acclaimed for its structural, sharply angular "kite-shaped" summer leaves and large, intricately veined lilac-pink flowers.
