It does have glands on the lower leaf surface, doesn't it? I suppose
Gardenworld sold you a plant with two typos on the label, and it
should have been labelled _Pinguicula_ from S.Bartolome de *Ayautla*,
Oaxaca, Mexico, a close relative of _P. agnata_ recently described as
_P. gigantea_ by Hans Luhrs.

Kind regards
Jan
