Best I could do at night under lights, plus a flash.
I will try again on a sunny day.

It's taken a long long time, but it's finally starting to put out better pitchers.
JMatt
 
Awesome!
 
Looks great!
 
Wow. How long have you had that? It looks over 4 times as large as mine, and mine is like a year old. Good job!
 
Really nice Plant! The close-up's totally Awesome!!!:-O
 
Wow! I like that silvery look it's got from the reflection on the hairs. That's so cool.
 
I'm not sure exactly how long I've had this plant? Probably 2 + years.
I have also started eight other cuttings from this clump. Only three or four of the cuttings had roots when I took them but they all survived. I'm really starting to like Heliamphoras!

Hey JMatt, how do you take/start your cuttings? I've accidentally separated a few juvenile pitchers from my H. minor, and I'd like to see if they'll grow...

I just potted them up in the mix that the adult plant is growing in, Long fiber sphagnum moss, perlite, and some Cyprus wood chips. I kept them moist and very humid in a cool tank under lights. No real special care, just keep it bright, humid and cool.

Thanks for the reply, that's been my method so far. I just haven't seen any growth yet, and it's been almost two months. I thought maybe I was doing something wrong. The oddest thing is that the oldest snapped pitcher has turned neon red. Good growing!
