In the spring of 2011, I've decided to place my biggest Heli Heterodoxa x Minor outside where it can get full sun while it was still
cool. Spring soon turned into summer and I was starting to get concerned about the heat, but i still left it in the same spot
where it received the full summer sun and the I noticed a bunch of ants holding on to each other while they float in the
water in every single pitcher....I was amazed as to how and where did these ants come from....By the time it was mid summer
and was reaching 90 to 100 degree farenheit outside, I've decided to submerge the whole pot in a tub of water so the
evaporation can cool the plant down and to my surprise, not only are the pitchers filled with ants, they are now also filled with
common black flies and yellow jackets ...And to my surprise, despite the heat, my Heli just shot out more robust
pitchers...So I guess Heliamphora Heterodoxa x Minor can cope with 90 to 100 Degree Farenheit (35 Degree Celcius)...
