nelsongas Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Hi, sold to me more than 3 years ago as being nutans, but I have some doubts, can you please identify this plant. Pot 15 cm diameter. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argo88 Posted January 19, 2020 Report Share Posted January 19, 2020 Hi!! This was my heliamphora, that I gave to a friend when I changed home... it is a nutans x heterodoxa, and I bought it with only two adult pitchers in a garden center at about 13 €...I think it could be the same plant... it is a very strong hybrid;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maciej Stelmach Posted January 20, 2020 Report Share Posted January 20, 2020 (edited) It's possible but it can be as well H. heterodoxa x minor. The H. heterodoxa x nutans clone I own tends to produce much bigger nectar spoons. Also, I wouldn't put much faith in labelling of supermarket plants. I remember getting couple years ago H. heterodoxa x nutans from Matt Soper. At some point it ended up being virtually identical to my H. x midoxa plant. So which plant is valid and which isn't? Guess we'll never know. Pictures for comparison: Edited January 20, 2020 by Maciej Stelmach 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
