A little hitch hiker in a pot of a heli devision. Most likely finalysonia. :D

I took the heli out to cut off some dead leaves, and i looked at the "finalysonia" and saw little yellow things, and thought they were aphids. Upon closer inspection, its Actually a harty! YAY!
I couldn't think of were it came from at first, but then it hit me. A while back, I got some seeds (15-ish) an planted it into a pot. I think one or maybe three came up, but died to mold. :( So I recycled the soil and i guess this is how it happened. Pics coming soon

Life doesn't get get much better than that! I saw a guy on Terraforums find a Cephalotus hitchhiking in a pot of purchased plants.

This just goes to reinforce the old adage, "Never throw out a pot of seeds just because they haven't germinated yet."

Now you just have to strike a compromise between Heliamphora conditions and hartmeyerorum conditions.

Congratulations on your find!

Good growing,
Mike
