Wow great plant, how long have you had it for?
 
Jayson,...

Thanks, Im not sure but it is probably getting close to a year... Im sure I have a pic of it when it first arrived, Ill dig around and try to find it this evening.

It has grown quite a bit, but is just now putting out adult pitchers consistantly

Nice! I like its color!
 
Thanks Cape :)

Jason, here is an early pic, this would be immediately after arrival. It may be hard to judge the growth, look at the sphagnum for comparison I guess. I believe it arrived in a 2" pot.

Very nice. In the first picture, is the one "golden" pitcher in the middle dead or dying? Just wondering since I can't really tell since it is mostly covered. Thanks for sharing. I'm not a fan of immature Heliamphora pitcher, but mature ones... Dang Dude! Great stuff.

dang I wish that site you gave on lighting was in easier to navigate, I sure would like to try some of that lighting I heard it is somewhat difficult to get heliamphora to color up in cultivation as they need intense light.

lol. :nono: It, however, does provide a nice contrast to that "nasty" red all over the other pitchers... lol.
