Pinguicula gracilis x lauena is an in-house hybrid created at Rainbow in 2023. This particular hybrid produces reddish pointy leaves under strong light and a beautiful succulent rosette when is in non-carnivorous phase. The plants have not flowered yet, but we'll update them once we get some flowers. (Please keep in mind that they are seed grown, therefore, some flower/plant variation may occur).

The plants on the pictures are representative, you will get a similar plant. [Plants are not flowering at the moment]. Please note that you may get a plant in succulent phase.

You'll get a similar plant to the ones in the picture. Please note that some plants are greener than others but will turn pink/reddish under intense lights.

The plants are shipped bare root in a plastic container to protect the plants. We ship the plants on Monday and Wednesday to avoid the weekend cut off.

The plant's size is about 0.5-0.75" in diameter. Please read this before buying.
