Pinguicula Aphrodite – Graceful Growth and Bold Blooms

Named after the goddess of beauty, Pinguicula Aphrodite lives up to its name with elegant foliage and vibrant, oversized flowers. Its long, slender leaves grow in a lush, graceful rosette, while the bright magenta blooms float above on tall stems—often multiple at once. This hybrid is a favorite among collectors for its stunning floral display and excellent insect-trapping ability.

Whether you choose a potted plant ready to go, or a bare-root option for your custom setup, Aphrodite makes a striking and reliable addition to any carnivorous plant collection.

Key Features:

• Gorgeous Flowers: Large, magenta-pink blooms often appear in multiples and contrast beautifully against the lime-green leaves.
• Elegant Rosette: Grows long, narrow leaves in a starburst pattern—eye-catching even when not in bloom.
• Functional Beauty: Sticky leaves effectively catch fungus gnats and other small pests.
• Bare-Root or Potted: Available as a rooted plant ready for potting or shipped in a pot with growing medium.

Planting Tip:

If ordering bare-root, use a well-draining mix of peat, perlite, and/or sand. A shallow container and bright indirect light are ideal for long-term health. Photos show a mature, flowering specimen. Shipped plants may not be in bloom at the time of arrival.

Mythically Beautiful, Practically Easy

Pinguicula Aphrodite is the perfect blend of ornamental and functional. Whether on a windowsill, under lights, or in a terrarium, this butterwort delivers lasting impact with minimal fuss.
