This morning i took a couple of pictures for my flickr album, and then i realize the big difference between the pilosa and typical minor clones.

I think, in a near future, the heliamphora minor var pilosa will become heliamphora pilosa.

Everything is different; the nectar spoon, the pitcher shape, and of course the inside/outside white fuzz.

Like you can see here, the pilosa have a greenish spoon, even under massive lighting. The shape and size are not the same.

Also, by the way, you can compare with a couple minor cultivars, just for fun:

Heliamphora minor 'burgundy-black'

That was a interesting exercice.

I know i know, im heliamphoholic, with a little cephalotus problem.

I will try to fix that this summer... :)

Thanks for watching guys.

There's no cure lol.
The only thing you can do is get more helis & cephs.............Nice pics.
You just reminded me I need to go take some pics of my last ones that came in from wistubas before they start pushing new growth so I can see before and after as well.
