Flypaper type carnivorous plant; especially good for catching Whitefly and other small insects.   This variety sports lovely pink flowers and will catch pests all year round.  The leaves are covered with a sticky substance which the flies stick to before being slowly digested.

Pot should be stood in a tray filled with rainwater up to 1 cm high.  Do not use tap water as over time this will kill the plant.  This Pinguicula is best kept in a heated greenhouse.
