Pinguicula Leilani (Jewel Butterwort)

Meet Leilani, a dazzling carnivorous butterwort that looks like a tiny living gemstone. Soft, succulent leaves form a rosette of shimmer—each surface dusted with sticky, dew-like droplets that naturally lure and digest gnats, fruit flies, and other pesky insects. This makes her both beautiful and useful, especially for windowsills and indoor plant shelves where fungus gnats like to hang out.

In bright light, her leaves intensify to vivid hues, and when happy, Leilani produces delicate blooms that seem to float above the rosette like miniature fairy flowers. She thrives on neglect—just give her bright light, a shallow dish of distilled or rainwater, and a cozy spot with good airflow. No fertilizer needed—she hunts for her own nutrients.
