Care Guide – Keep Your Butterwort Thriving
✅ Light: Prefers bright, indirect light and can tolerate some direct sun. A sunny windowsill is ideal.
💧 Watering: Keep the soil damp using distilled or rainwater only—tap water can harm its sensitive roots.
🌿 Humidity: Prefers moderate to high humidity, making it a great choice for terrariums or humid environments.
🌱 Soil & Repotting: Requires a nutrient-free carnivorous plant mix—regular potting soil is unsuitable.
🌼 Growth Habit: Produces beautiful pinkish-purple flowers under optimal conditions.
Important Care Notes
- Water Quality Matters: Use only distilled or rainwater to prevent damage from chemicals and minerals.
- No Fertiliser Needed: Pinguicula thrives in nutrient-poor environments, so avoid adding plant food or fertiliser. It absorbs nutrients from trapped insects and photosynthesis.
- Special Soil Required: When repotting, use a carnivorous plant mix to ensure proper drainage and prevent root damage.
- Natural Leaf Cycling: Older bottom leaves may turn brown and die—this is a normal part of the plant’s growth. Simply remove dead leaves to keep it looking fresh.
How Does Pinguicula Weser Catch Its Prey?
The Carnivorous Butterwort Pinguicula Weser is a flypaper trap plant, meaning it captures small insects using its sticky, glandular leaves. Once trapped, the plant slowly digests its prey, absorbing essential nutrients to support its growth. This makes it an excellent companion for other houseplants, naturally reducing pest populations without the need for pesticides.
