This Pinguicula agnata x gypsicola hybrid is our own cross. The mother plant is P. agnata ‘Red Leaf’ so the offspring develop a nice pinkish color under strong light. The leaves are wide like P. agnata but elongated like P. gypsicola. P. agnata x gypsicola prefers a loose mineral-based substrate that drains easily. Please note: Some plants are more green on arrival but will turn pink with time under intense light.
