Pinguicula balcanica, also known as the Balkanian butterwort, is a perennial carnivorous plant that is native to the Balkans. It can be found in countries such as Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, North Macedonia, Serbia, and the North of Montenegro. This plant grows in subalpine regions at altitudes of 900-2,500 meters above sea level. It thrives in wet, nutrient-poor, and acidic environments, often found in high altitude sphagnum bogs, near streams, and wet rocky areas in mountains. Pinguicula balcanica flowers in spring and produces seeds in the summer. It is able to survive the winter by going into a hibernation state.
