Pinguicula gigantea x cyclosecta is a Mexican butterwort hybrid that can grow quite large like its parent, P. gigantea. In strong light, the plant also develops a light purple tint thanks to its other parent, P. cyclosecta. P. gigantea x cyclosecta is a robust grower making it a great choice for beginning and expert carnivorous plant growers alike.
