very nice, I didnt even know they could make pitchers from the flower stalk
A beauty! I had one of those aerial pitchers last year. Is is considered "vegetative apomixis" with Heliamphora?
In flowering plants, the term "apomixis" is commonly used in a restricted sense to mean agamospermy, i.e. asexual reproduction through seeds.
Vegetative apomixis: In this type "the flowers are replaced by bulbils or other vegetative propagules which frequently germinate while still on the plant". Vegetative apomixis is important in Allium, Fragaria, some grasses, etc.
Apomixis is an asexual type of reproduction in which the plant embryos grow from egg cells without being fertilized by pollen—the male part of the plant.
