Pinguicula moctezuma Brown Tips: Likely Seasonal Dormancy, Not Disease

A P. moctezuma from Predatory Plants flowered nonstop but recently produced smaller leaves with brown tips. Grower cut latest flower to save energy.

Jeff Dallas: Probably entering dormancy. His own kitchen plant does the same—still blooms, leaves shrink. Keep soil damp (not soggy); African violet pots work well. At full dormancy, a tight bud of tiny leaves forms—keep barely moist. Resume normal watering when growth resumes in winter.
