Pinguicula 'George Sargent' is a registered cultivar developed by Adrian Slack. Registered 10.11.1998 it is the result of a cross between Pinguicula moranensis var. caudata and P. gypsicola. It is a vigorous and easy grower. The large winter rosettes must be kept dry, similar to it's gypsicola parent. It prefers loose, open soil. We use an all mineral mix which contains an aquatic planting medium based on arcilite, a common clay-based mineral used in soil-less planting mixes. Also includes silica sand and a very small amount of iron oxide. Another good mix is composed of 1 part each of peat, sand, vermiculite, perlite and pumice.
