How to Prune Beanweed?
(Pinguicula vulgaris)
Beanweed, also known as Pinvul, Fettkruter, Butterworts
An insect-eating perennial with greasy, rosette-forming leaves, beanweed thrives with minimal pruning. Dead leaf removal is essential; gently detach withered leaves post blooming. Prune off spent flowers to divert energy into growth and seed production. Spring and summer signal prime pruning times, aligning with beanweed's active growth. Pruning maintains plant health, stimulates new growth, and enhances carnivorous activity. Tools must be sterilized to prevent disease transmission. Keep intervention light to avoid stress.
