Beautiful plants, Bill . . .

Are you also growing them outside or were they simply there for photography?

dang those Helis love you..

Great job growing them!

Now I see the stem that Tatei is known to produce. It almost looks like a cross between a pitcher plant and a bromeliad.

Btw, did you know that Tatei has been discovered to produce digestive enzymes?

Those are all great. Whatever you are doing they like it. What humidity ranges are you keeping them in?

Hi
Thanks for all the kind words
BigBella- I keep my plants in a greenhouse and just took them outside for photographing. But will try a couple of nutans outside for the summer. Alas its far too cold to try leaving any out all year round.

Nightsky- not sure what the humidity is as I don't have a meter. But I don't try to raise it above what it might be in a fully open greenhouse (in the summer) which has bubble wrap on the glass which diffuses the sunlight somewhat.

I am please how the tatei has done as wistuba stopped selling that particular clone saying it was too weak and failed to grow well!

cheers

Wow, great growing Bill! Makes me want to move some of my Helis out of the terrarium and put them in the greenhouse.
