Pinguicula × 'Linz' DFPI41 (Butterwort)
Pinguicula × 'Linz' DFPI41 (Butterwort)
Pinguicula × 'Linz' DFPI41 is a cultivated Mexican butterwort hybrid valued for its attractive foliage, vigorous growth, and ornamental flowers. Originating from specialist horticultural breeding, this clone combines desirable characteristics from its parentage to produce a compact yet elegant rosette that performs reliably in cultivation. Like many Mexican butterwort hybrids, it reflects the remarkable diversity of species that inhabit the limestone cliffs, seepage zones, and cloud forests of central and southern Mexico.
The carnivorous leaves are covered in microscopic glandular hairs that secrete a glistening sticky mucilage. Small insects such as fungus gnats, fruit flies, and other tiny arthropods become trapped on the leaf surface, where digestive enzymes break down prey and release nutrients that are absorbed directly through the foliage. Plants typically develop neat rosettes of smooth, succulent leaves that range from bright green to shades of pink, peach, or bronze under stronger light. Mature specimens produce elegant flowers on slender stalks, usually displaying soft pink, lavender, or violet tones that contrast beautifully with the foliage.
Like many Mexican butterwort hybrids, Pinguicula × 'Linz' DFPI41 undergoes a seasonal transition between actively carnivorous growth and a more compact succulent phase during cooler or drier periods. Its combination of attractive foliage, reliable growth, and regular flowering makes it an appealing choice for both new and experienced growers. As a named clone maintained in cultivation, it is particularly valued by collectors seeking distinctive butterwort hybrids that showcase the horticultural potential of the genus.
Origin: Cultivated Mexican Pinguicula hybrid
Plant Type: Perennial carnivorous butterwort hybrid
Growth Habit: Compact rosette with seasonal carnivorous and succulent growth phases
Flowers: Pink to lavender-purple flowers borne on slender stalks
Light: Bright indirect light to filtered sun
Water: Prefers pure water and moderate moisture during active growth
Growing Medium: Open, mineral-rich butterwort mix with excellent drainage
Dormancy: Seasonal succulent rosette during cooler or drier periods
What's Included: One healthy Pinguicula × 'Linz' DFPI41 growing in a Nano Nursery cup, ready to continue developing under suitable conditions.
A tissue culture plants are grown in clear gel, transparent container that holds multiple young plants (typically 3 or more) grown under laboratory conditions.
Our Gel Cup are non-sterile gel media that we use for start the hardening process after a plant has been in tissue culture.These vessels provide a carefully controlled environment, keeping the plants healthy as the get ready to transition to standard growing conditions.
Quick Hardening Steps:
- Open Lid Gradually: Slightly open the cup to slowly reduce humidity.
- Maintain Humidity: Gradually decrease humidity over 2–4 weeks.
- Indirect Light: Start with gentle, indirect lighting.
- Moist Soil: Keep media damp, never wet.
- Monitor Closely: Slowly increase airflow and light exposure.
Each transparent Transition Cup (5 cm diameter × 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant that has moved beyond sterile tissue culture and into a structured transition medium.
Inside, you’ll find a young carnivorous plant securely planted in a semi-solid blend designed to support root development while easing the shift from gel to soil.
This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity and airflow, helping reduce transplant shock and supporting the plant during this critical transition stage.
Suitable for both novice growers and experienced collectors, Transition Cups provide a reliable, low-stress way to guide delicate carnivorous plants toward successful soil establishment.
Each transparent carnivorous cup (5 cm diameter x 7 cm height) contains a juvenile carnivorous plant freshly transitioned from tissue culture.
Inside, you'll find a young carnivorous plant planted securely in special growing media soil that replicates their natural habitat.
This carefully balanced environment maintains optimal humidity, aiding the delicate plants during their crucial hardening-off stage.
Perfect for both novice growers and experienced collectors, these cups provide a simple and effective way to cultivate and enjoy captivating insect-eating plants.
