Heliamphora minor aonda giant

[Maiden]

Here a nice video of aonda cave exploration. i think i will care this plant with less light, and much more relative humidity.

Its a spanish video, so i turn the sound off.

No need to apologize Maiden. Just use regular light. The plant was growing near the cave, not inside it.

 

[Maiden]

Oh ok. My logic tell me this plant grow inside, on the walls, and this is the reason why this minor evolved with very wide top pitchers. To catch more light. But since that plant grow outside the cave, this analyse is no good.

I wonder why this plant evolved with wide pitchers if they grow outside.
