Pinguicula gigantea x moctezumae is a carnivorous plant from the butterwort plant family (Lentibulariaceae). Unique within this genus, this variant produces a wide rosette of slender, lanceolate leaves. The rosette is relatively large and could grow larger than 12 cm in diameter. The upper side of the leaves is covered with many glands producing a sticky substance where insects could be caught with. The insects are digested on top of the leaves, the nutrients available are used by the plant. Even with bright light conditions, the leaves of this plant stay vivid green. Once per year, mostly in spring, one to several flower stalks are produced carrying a single bright pink, spurred flower with a golden core. Flowers are somewhat similar to the flower of a violet. Propagation is done by repotting the smaller rosettes forming near the base of the mature plant, or seeds.

For optimal growth of Pinguicula gigantea x moctezumae, provide temperatures between 15 and 25 degrees Celsius in summer. Most commonly in this season it produces carnivorous leaves, and it is actively growing. Provide a lot of moisture, and a humidity of at least 70 %. In winter this plant could handle colder temperatures. Ensure optimal ventilation at all times. This species is mostly grown in bright rooms indoors, cool greenhouses or specialized terraria. Pinguicula gigantea x moctezumae best with bright indirect light. Direct sunlight could scorch the leaves. Pot this plant in mineral rich soil that is able to maintain moisture. Make sure that this soil contains very little nutrients. Fertilizer is rarely applied; it is possible to ‘feed’ the leaves with small insects occasionally.
