- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsEach Pinguicula “UFO” is a genetically unique plant grown from seed produced by a Pinguicula laueana “Tangerine” that was pollinated by an unknown butterwort or butterworts. Since this series' exact genetics are a mystery, we named them “UFO” which stands for “Unknown Flowering Organism.” Howard suspects that there is some Pinguicula ‘Faulisi’ pollen in the mix because of some stand-out, larger flowers that this cross has produced presented ruffled, pink petals. In contrast, some of the smaller flowers that we’ve seen this series produce remind us of Pinguicula ‘Seductora,’ or laueana x emarginata - it's possible some emarginata pollen may also have been introduced. We have also recorded that this plant goes in and out of dormancy frequently, but have not discovered a specific cadence that fits all plantlets. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this an intermediate level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsPinguicula agnata “Red Leaf” is an amazing variety of agnata that has increased levels of anthocyanin (pigmentation) and will, under intense light, produce blood-red leaves. “Red Leaf’s" flowers are round and mostly white, usually only featuring lavender coloration on the edges of the petals. Agnata “Red Leaf” is also a fantastic hybridizer, producing some incredible crosses including “Rue” and “Pastel.” The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsPinguicula agnata “True Blue” is an incredible variety of agnata that has vibrantly colored purple blue flowers. The leaves have little-to-no anthocyanin (pigmentation) so they stay green even under intense light. Agnata “True Blue” is also a fantastic hybridizer, producing some incredible crosses including our new series “Bled.” The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsAn in-house Brambles Botanicals hybrid, Pinguicula “Rue” is agnata “Red Leaf” x agnata “True Blue” (CROSS # 21022). The name “Rue” is a blend of “Red” and “Blue” from each parent's name. Each plant from this series is a seed-grown, genetically unique, pure Pinguicula agnata from two agnata varieties on the opposite end of the spectrum from each other: agnata “Red Leaf” has increased levels of anthocyanin (pigmentation) and will, under intense light, produce blood-red leaves, while agnata “True Blue” has little-to-no anthocyanin so the leaves stay green. “Red Leaf’s" flowers are rather white, usually only featuring lavender coloration on the edges of the petals, while “True Blue’s" flowers are vibrantly colored in a blue-ish lavender. Many “Rues” are already showing the best features of both parents: vibrant leaves and colorful flowers. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsAn in-house Brambles Botanicals hybrid, Pinguicula “Bled” is agnata “True Blue” x agnata “Red Leaf” (CROSS # 21023). The name “Bled” is a blend of “Blue” and “Red” from each parent's name. Each plant from this series is a seed-grown, genetically unique, pure Pinguicula agnata from two agnata varieties on the opposite end of the spectrum from each other: agnata “True Blue” has little-to-no anthocyanin (pigmentation) so the leaves stay green, while agnata “Red Leaf” has increased levels of anthocyanin and will, under intense light, produce blood red leaves. “True Blue’s" flowers are vibrantly colored in a blue-ish lavender while the flowers of “Red Leaf” are whiter, usually only featuring lavender coloration on the edges of the petals while the flower is young. Though we have yet to record a flower, many “Bleds” are already showing the best features of both parents. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsKnown from just one location in Oaxaca, Mexico, Pinguicula gigantea or the Giant Butterwort is the largest butterwort yet discovered. In ideal conditions, they can grow to be as wide as a dinner plate! Pinguicula gigantea is also fairly unique in that it produces carnivorous mucilage on both the surface and underside of its leaves and like to be kept wetter. It also doesn’t go dormant, so it produces sticky, carnivorous leaves all year. The flowers are a beautiful purplish that starts to fade towards white as the flowers age. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. Gigantea is also a fantastic hybridizer, producing pollen and seed if manually pollinated. In our experience, this plant is usually at its largest in the fall or winter, flowers in the winter, and then divides in the spring.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsNative to the Mexican state of Nuevo León, the graceful, diminutive Pinguicula gracilis is a delightful little carnivorous butterwort that loves to divide and multiply. It’s an easy grower that produces white flowers with a larger lower central lobe that also features a greenish-yellow spot near the throat. The typical gracilis’s flower stalk can reach over 2 inches tall, but this “Stalkless” variety rarely produces any visible stem, so the flowers open between the leaves of the plant itself! The plant you will receive will be between .5"-1" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner-intermediate level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsPinguicula gypsicola x sp "Köhres" (Koehres) is a Mexican butterwort hybrid that is essentially a less expensive and more easily grown Pinguicula gypsicola, albeit with slightly broader leaves. The plant’s father, sp "Köhres" (Koehres), is believed to be Pinguicula gypsicola x moranensis, so there’s a lot of gypsicola genes in this cross. We believe the cross came from Oliver Gluch initially. It's a fun, easy hybrid with long, thin carnivorous leaves and gypsicola-like purple flowers. Under intense light, the leaves produce purple coloration along the margins of the leaf base creating an even more visually complex plant, especially around the crown of the plant. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner-intermediate level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsAn in-house Brambles Botanicals hybrid, Pinguicula “Starburst” is agnata “Red Leaf” x rectifolia (CROSS # 21065). This series produces a lot of variability in both flowers and leaves. We named this series “Starburst” because all of the flowers appear to have an explosive appearance, sometimes with imperfections like Tie-dye patterns or mottling that reminded us of astronomical events unfolding— but also the candy, particularly because this series’ glistening leaves often have a pinkish hue that makes the plants look like candy. The mother plant, agnata “Red Leaf,” is known for producing blood-red leaves under high light, due to increased anthocyanin (pigmentation). The father plant, rectifolia, has dramatic, purple flowers with slight ruffles which makes for an endlessly versatile combination when mixed with agnata “Red Leaf’s rounder, whiter flower. Each plant is genetically unique, seed-grown, and one-of-a-kind! The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsA new, in-house Brambles Botanicals hybrid, Pinguicula “Doily” is cyclosecta x ‘Faulisi’ #8 (of 11.) Aptly named because it produces pink, round, ruffled flowers that reminded us of the decorative coasters we would see around our grandparents’ homes; additional flower features are purple-veins and white markings close to the throat. This is an adorable cultivar that is still new to market very rare in collections. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this an intermediate level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsA Brambles Botanicals-named Mexican butterwort hybrid bred by Ben Siebenaler in Portland, OR. The cross for Pinguicula “Pastel” is agnata “Red Leaf” x mesophytica #2. Even under intense light, Pastel’s mostly green leaves will barely produce any sort of coloration. The flowers have friendly, round lobes that are slightly lavender-colored and will fade to mostly white as the flower ages. This is a pastel even Morticia Addams could love! The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner-intermediate level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsTo the best of our knowledge, this particular butterwort was collected somewhat recently by Fernando Rivadavia from around the Mexican town of Molango in the state of Hidalgo, making it quite rare in collections. It produces beautiful purple flowers with even deeper purple markings where the petals meet, but the real reason to grow this butterwort is for its leaves - they’re lanceolate-shaped with distinct, cupped margins that fade as the leaves become equally distinct petioles, the latter of which is rare amongst butterworts. The distinct petioles remind us of Pinguicula acuminata but “Molango’s" actual leaves aren’t as broad. “Molango’s" leaves also flush a gorgeous mottled pink with darker, purple venation but in contrast, the center or rib of the leaf remains green. It’s important to note that while in active growth, Pinguicula “Molango” likes being potted in a mossy mix that’s kept quite wet at all times. “Molango” will go extremely dormant at which time it must be kept much drier. The plant you will receive will be between 1”-1.5” in diameter. We would consider this an advanced level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsPinguicula laueana "Red" is one of those must-have plants. This is the only butterwort with a truly red flower. The leaves produce varying blushes and dark red venation. It’s also a great hybridizer that produces incredible offspring. Honestly, that this plant even exists and is in cultivation is a wonder to me. Pinguicula laueana "Red" was collected by the famous botanist Alfred Lau in 1973 and named after him in 1989. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner level plant.
- Sold By: Brambles BotanicalsAnother variety of the red-flowered Pingicula laueana, the “CalCarn Red” or “California Carnivores Red” has rounder, slightly ruffled flowers compared to the flatter, more rectangular petals of the typical form of laueana. We would also say the flowers may be ever so slightly less red. It is believed that Alfred Lau gave California Carnivores this variety directly. The plant you will receive will be between 1"-1.5" in diameter. We would consider this a beginner level plant.
