I never wanted to grow Heliamphora before, they just seemed too difficult. But lo and behold, a fellow member of my local CP society sold me a teeny tiny division of H. minor for about $16. Over the years it really struggled, but it survived. A few years later, I was able to set up a greenhouse (unheated, fan cooled, fogger, and misting system in a Mediterranean climate), and surprisingly, tried more Heliamphora. It turns out my conditions are good enough for them to thrive! I went from a struggling H. minor to having 9 or 10 different species and a few hybrids! Besides the Nepenthes and plenty of orchids, I'm really glad I started growing Heliamphora. Such a beautiful and rewarding genus in my book! Now to collect as many species as I can! 😅 These videos and the Nepenthes expedition videos have really motivated me to try and explore more types of plants, and really got me to a place where I can really grow and appreciate such exotic genera/species! Thanks for all of the work you do Stewart!

I’m jealous! Hopefully 4 years later your collection has flourished. I’ve got a small collection of mostly nepenthes and one H. Minor in there as well. Having a very hard time with it, hopefully my experience will mimic yours!

@@McDanglesFTB ooh, nice! Always great to start with a nice H. Minor. I wish I could say my collection was doing well, but I've been dealing with some major burnout and issues with some components of my greenhouse breaking down, so unfortunately my plants are dying here and there. But I am trying to climb back out of that hole and rebuild the collection. I have some heli hybrids left. As well as some great neps still pulling through. Hoping the best for you!

Thanks for the new videos about species in the wild. These videos gave me the idea to search for some Drosera close to my house in Perth, Western Australia. In about 20 minutes I found hundreds of what I think are Pygmy Drosera growing in the limestone sands close to Bibra Lake. I’m looking forward to when they flower. I would love to go on a carnivorous plant expedition when/if they start up again. Thanks again for more vids.

Thanks Stew! Great overview, and lovely imagery. You’re probably aware by now but the first mention of Heliamphora glabra is Heliamphora elongata as listed in your description. Also H chimantensis hybrid is with pulchella not purpurascens. Thanks for putting this together!!

I noticed H. glabra got mentioned twice, once at 6:40 and once at 9:10. Was the first one H. elongata? I would also like to know if golden hairs vs. silver hairs on Heliamphora can be used to identify the species, or if that's just a trait that varies by environmental conditions? One interesting thing is I do see the striping vein pattern on the H. nutans hybrid at 20:12, maybe the illustrators saw a hybrid and colored the stripes a bit more dark than what was seen in reality? I would like to see a H. nutans nectar spoon up close in more detail, as I've seen several pictures of the non-nutans hybrids but it's hard to find an official picture of what the H. nutans nectar spoon should look like.

Excellent video! Was a pleasure to watch. Could I just point out the drawing around 18:16-18:21 when you question if the stripes were a mistake. At 20:12 you show a hybrid nutans in captivity with very similar stripes (not as strong colouring). Is it possible they drew a hyrbid?

I have a number of other carnivorous plants growing in a terrarium or polydarium. If you will with an open top, I'm wondering what is the best substrate for this particular plan and replacement. I have ways to increase humidity and I have fans for air flow. I have a number of South American miniature and micro orchids in it as well. Any recommendations? By the way, love the video very end up great pictures. I think it's fantastic

Thanks for this video. It's my fav Heliamphora videa and in situ video! Would you care elaborate or point at a source where I can find more of the ecology? I think it's very inetersting when you compare the radial adaptation and speciation to the finches of the galapagos islands. I'd like to know WHAT the different species eat: different sizes of ants? Frog poop? Something else? Are some more specialized than others? Any info on this would be greatly appreciated!

It could be better, but this is an artefact of British English pronunciation where French and Spanish words are generally pronounced with emphasis on the very first syllable, opposite to how the natural emphasis would be in French or Spanish e.g. CA-feh rather than cah-FE for cafe, GAR-age rather than gar-AGE for garage, or BAL-let rather than bal-LET for ballet. In North American English it's the other way around. Funny how language evolves in different places, not unlike how many of these Heliamphora species evolved isolated on these mountain tops!
