This is one of the most beautiful butterworts we've encountered. It has a tight rosette of large, broad green leaves. The leaves are very sticky and captures lots of gnats, mosquitoes, and fruit flies. The plant can grow up to 5 inches across. It also looks like a flower until you see it produce an actual flower. It's like a flower within a flower. Butterwortception!

    Very excellent shape and is growing very well. It's nice and green. It sits on my windowsill. It gets just the right amount of sun that is required. I'm very satisfied.

    I purchased one of these back in April 2014. It arrived in very good condition. Catches lots of gnats for me which is great. This plant keeps producing new leaves rapidly. Just this morning I already noticed a flower stalk in the making deep within the center of the plant!
