Thanks Av! I didn't think my conditions were overly humid. I have them sitting in an ebb and flow tray open above in my basement. I think that maybe a fan might help in my case.

4 of my Heliamphora are in various states of blooming, but so far, the flowers seem to get stuck as they are developing. One plant is a complete bust for this round. The second has the first flower opening, but as of yet, I have not been able to collect any pollen from it. The petals all seem to...

I am growing mine in my basement in Minnesota. In the summer the temperature rarely goes above 80 and in the winter in the mid to low 60s. They are in an ebb and flow tray that I have flood several times a day. I bring the water right up to the top of the soil and then let it drain. My lighting...

It's Michaela, and thank you! I was very excited! And I have some pollen on its way for that first flower!

Checked on the plants this morning and discovered that my H. heterodoxa gran Sabana is flowering! This is a first for me! I have had the plant for about a year now and it has grown from a wee pup of a plant to a full grown beauty! Anyone have any pollen to share? H. heterodoxa by Michaela...

If you give it more light, the pitcher will turn a beautiful deep red as will the leaves.

I am growing all of my Helis in an ebb and flow set up that floods four times a day. I don't know what the humidity is, but it is certainly higher than yhe rest of the house and higher than the other cp growing areas. Most be a quirk of that clone if yours did the same. All my others are doing...

The Heliamphora that I got last spring are doing quite well. Lots of growth and good color. However, my H. minor isn't developing nectar cups properly. As the leaf is growing they look good, but as they start to fill out and open, they just fail. My H. heterodoxa x nutans which is in the next...
