Pinguicula "Desiree" is a hybrid of P. cyclosecta and P. moctezumae. This hybrid was created by Rodrigo Patron in 2016 and was named after his lovey wife. Rodrigo crossed a cyclosecta that was circulating in México at the time and a P. moctezumae with huge flowers from the UNAM botanical garden. This cross produced this beautiful butterwort with long dark veiny leaves and an exquisite vibrant violet flower with a yellow throat. This butterwort is, without a doubt, a masterpiece. Rodrigo did an excellent job in selecting this hybrid, and I'm sure that many collectors will enjoy this Ping as much as we do. 

The butterwort on the pictures are representative, you will get a similar plant. [Plants are not flowering at the moment]
