I've got a magic window!
I'm wondering if any Heliamphora are tougher then others.
I'm about to lose my second one of Heliamphora heterodoxa x minor. My first was the PFT special, and the second was a small plant from a fellow grower. It did last a lot longer, a month compared to 4 days, but is about to die.
The conditions which I supplied for them is as follows:
I pot mine in a 4" pot. I used LFS, perlite, peatmoss, and lava rock for my soil mix. I placed it in my terrarium. Day time temp's in the mid 80's / the humidity around 50%. Night the temp dropped to the mid 70's / humidity around 78%. I have 2 - 15 watt florescent light on for 13 hours a day.
I would love to grow a sunpitcher of somekind, but I'm having trouble with this plant. It makes it very discouraging to try again. Do my conditions sound favarable to sunpitchers?
