I'm gonna start posting some pics of my plants. Unfortunately, since I only started growing plants last September, I haven't had many of these carnivores for a long time, and my growing setups are still changing. I can't wait to see how these plants will look after a year of my care, but for now they are small, dormant or damaged in some way.

Nice list and good looking plants!

So, I finally got a Heliamphora. It's a Heliamphora minor, and I ordered it potted from FTS a couple days ago. It already looks really great, and I can't wait to see it grow.

The Heliamphora looks great Lock! I hope it grows well for you

Thank you, thank you. I can't wait until it starts producing larger pitchers. These plants are awesome.

Thanks for sending such a healthy one! -Lock

Update! I recently snagged one of the FTS "DC XL" clones! It's sitting under my T5 ballast, doing great. At this size, it wouldn't seem very impressive to someone who wasn't aware of the genetics that this plant possesses, but I'm beyond excited about seeing it reach its full potential. I'm very glad to be able to grow this cultivar. -Lock

Looks good Lock! Start feeding that baby ever week or two and it should grow quickly

I'll be sure to do that. I can't wait to see how this one grows this year. -Lock
