Variant

Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis is a captivating hybrid butterwort that combines the characteristics of both parent species into a compact, effective insect-trapping plant. Despite its small size, typically not exceeding 2 inches in diameter, this butterwort is known for its robust growth and ability to form dense colonies that can eventually fill out the container in which it's grown. The leaves of this hybrid are initially green but often turn pink under intense full-spectrum lighting, adding to its visual appeal. This plant is especially favoured by carnivorous plant enthusiasts for its low maintenance requirements and its ability to thrive in a variety of indoor settings.

What to expect

The plant comes with a default nursery pot. The nursery pot is usually 0.5" - 1" smaller than stated to fit into the same size decorative pot. Washable Paper Planter Bags are sold separately.

As with all living things, no two plants are alike. There is some natural variation in size, shape, and characteristics. We make every effort to bring you a plant that as closely as possible matches the plant as it appears on our website, in the size you have chosen, and have a good potential to happily grow in your home.

Pro tips

Avoid touching the leaves as the sticky glands are delicate and can be damaged easily. Repotting Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis should be done with care, ideally in the spring, using a suitable carnivorous plant soil mix that ensures good drainage. During winter, watch for the development of non-carnivorous leaves and adjust care accordingly. Remove any dead or decaying leaves to prevent fungal infections and promote new growth. Ensure sufficient airflow, especially at higher humidity, to prevent leaf rot. Use distilled or rainwater to maintain moist soil, as tap water can often contain minerals that are harmful to carnivorous plants.

Care Guide

How to take care of Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis

Sun: Indirect

Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis should not be in a position to see the sun directly, although early morning or late evening sun is fine. Filtered sunlight through a sheer curtain is best and most homes are comprised primarily of indirect sunlight. The best spot for them is where they do not see the sun during the majority of the day but still get bright, indirect light.

Light: Medium - Bright

Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis will thrive in bright light, but also can tolerate medium light. A good medium-light place in your home would be in the middle of a room that has a regular size window. They can be placed anywhere between the middle of the room and the window. Remember that plants will grow based on how much light they receive.

Water: When top quarter dry

Allow the top quarter of the soil to dry before watering Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis again. This usually takes about 3 - 4 days in an average home environment. It will vary depending on the time of year, your environment and lighting conditions. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.

Humidity: High

Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis likes a high humidity environment, which supports its mucilage production for effective insect trapping. Maintaining a high humidity environment can be achieved through regular misting, using a pebble tray, or employing a humidifier. Although they won't die if they don't receive enough humidity, their leaves may have some dry, crunchy, or yellow edges.

Pet Friendly

You can feel comfortable having Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis around your home in the potential case where your pet feels like nibbling on it. However, we typically recommend keeping your pets from eating any of your houseplants.

Introducing the Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis, a small yet formidable hybrid butterwort that brings an element of intrigue and efficiency to your collection of carnivorous plants. This plant symbolizes the power of synergy and adaptability, demonstrating how combining traits can lead to fascinating and robust outcomes.

The Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis is a compact plant, typically not exceeding 2 inches across, making it an ideal choice for those with limited space or who prefer a more subtle addition to their plant displays. Despite its diminutive size, this butterwort is a prolific grower. Over time, it forms dense colonies that can beautifully fill out its container, creating a lush, vibrant mat of leaves.

The leaves of this hybrid are initially green but have the unique ability to turn pink under intense full-spectrum lights. This transformation not only adds a decorative flair but also illustrates the plant's adaptability to its environment, changing and thriving under different lighting conditions.

To care for your Pinguicula Emarginata x Jaumavensis, provide it with bright, indirect light or full-spectrum artificial lighting to encourage its color transformation.

Watering should be consistent but measured, allowing the medium to remain moist but not overly saturated. During its active growing season, it can capture small insects, which provide essential nutrients. In the dormant period, usually signaled by shorter days and cooler temperatures, reduce watering slightly to accommodate its reduced metabolic needs.
