Pinguicula ‘Hanka’ is a Mexican butterwort hybrid of P. zecheri and P. rotundiflora. It forms large purple blooms with ruffled edges and can flower during its carnivorous and succulent phase. P. ‘Hanka’ was registered as an official cultivar in April of 2000.
Description
Size and packing method: You will receive a bare root plant about 1.5 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.
