Heliamphora nutans "Giant"

[BigBella]

Finally, after making some harsh "lowland gorilla" divisions last year, my Heliamphora nutans "Giant" is finally sending up a flower stalk along with some fine new pitchers; and I am sure that other blooms will soon follow, if the past is any indication.

It has been a few years since I have been able to harvest any seed . . .

Ah, my favorite species of Heli.....

Alas, I can't even find a place that sells the normal version of this plant.

Wow! Great job BigBella. What do you mean by "lowland gorilla" divisions? Thanks for posting.

Stunning as always!
Too bad you and Butch live so far away from each other, I'm sure you two would have a Heli galore !

Thanks all . . .

By "lowland gorilla," I simply meant rough clumsy treatment of the plant, both by me and by my dog, Bella, initiating some then-unplanned divisions . . .
