Let's fix a couple of your assumptions please
First off, are you saying that Matt is showing favoritism to me?
Second, we live in different countries so the people telling me what they have are different people because I'm US you're UK...

Btw, i think Daniel is actually planning to pay for it, he's not getting it for free, just being put on a list for it, like a reservation.

Just found a photo I snapped of a few of the baby Heliamphora right after I'd finished potting them. Thought I would share

That is looking great Matt,
Again, are you making me buy one
What's the pricing for one?
Perhaps you can count with me for one!
When will they be available in the store?
Thanks!

Hah, nope, but you're welcome to if you'd like

We haven't decided yet, but they'll probably be priced similarly to the Cephalotus.

In another week or two once I know that they're settled in and I can see some new growth on them.

There are many beneficial bacterium that are unique to certain regions, or even plant species. They probably survive because the water they are in has much more movement oxygenation and refreshment.
Thats my take on things, after all you don't see to many plants in the wild, of any kind molding-over

After looking at both Minors and Nutans, I can't find much of a difference, what's better in your guys' opinion? What are the differences?? Thanks

They're quite different actually. H. nutans gets quite large, whereas H. minor stays smaller. H. minor usually gets nice coloration and fairly well-formed nectar spoons compared to H. nutans. It also seems to be slightly easier to grow. That's about all I can think of right now. My brain is a bit fried from a long day, but I'll post back if I think of some more to say
