I think that this is the most beautiful and unexpected of the Pinguiculas. It grows in the Pyrenees
on both sides of the border. I have only seen it on the French side. The Spanish populations are said
to less accessible. Photographed near Gavarnie in the French Pyrennees. |

Plants in this population were very variable. All had large showy flowers, but the shade of purple
and the size of the white throat varied widely. The dark rock has a film of spring water running down it
, and supports a population of Pinguicula. The pale rock is dry as dust, and does not.
