Like other butterworts, Pinguicula × Aphrodite captures small insects with sticky glandular hairs on the leaf surface. Insects become stuck and are slowly digested, providing the plant with essential nutrients. During the growing season, the plant forms a compact rosette with bright green to light yellow leaves. With proper care, Pinguicula × Aphrodite can produce beautiful flowers, usually in shades of purple to lavender, that rise high above the leaves.
