Hello,

Here are some pictures of my heliamphoras, hope you like them.

The grow in the basement so the temperatures get quite low in the nights (around 10 degrees i think), and during the day with artificial light I get around 25.

Since the pictures were take have I added some more light to my tank, they tend to be quite green in colour (they look even lighter in the photos because of the lamp.)

A month ago I took some new pictuses in my higlandsetup.

Since I study on a different location than were I keep my plants, It takes a few weeks between me seeing them.

This weekend I got a few surprices :)

The whole setup, not that goodlooking, but It seems to work for my plants. Rainsytem and light goes on/off automatically.

Really Cool set up you got there!!! Try using black felt for the background, It will work better....

Hello again!

Even if there's lots of snow outside in Sweden, my plants seems to thrive in the basement :thumright:

RIMG0239-1.jpg

My second Heliamphora to flower, H.pulchella :D

I'v also tried to pollinate this one with pollen from the H.heterodoxa that was flowering a while ago :)

RIMG0244-1.jpg

N.talangensis from BestCarnivorousPlants in flower :D

Can someone see what sex it is?

The cooler weather makes the N.talangensis to pitcher aswell :)

Same H.pulchella flower and the outflowered H.heterodoxa.

IMGP0903-webb.jpg

Male N.talangensis flowering

IMGP1392-webb.jpg

N.talangensis. The colder weather makes it pitcher.

IMGP1389-webb.jpg

H.sarracenoides with big new pitcher :)

IMGP0859-webb.jpg

H.ciliata. The only one who doesn't seems to like this colder weather, hasn't grown for months and some pitcher actually seems to be brown at the base :P But it has gotten a nice red colour.

It really seems to be more lowlander than other Helis.

C.follicularis

N.diatas says thanks for watching!
