Heliamphora minor
I was very pleased with my H. minor when I received it. Not only was it in beautiful condition and healthy but it was alot bigger than I anticipated.
Adult specimens will produce pitchers 3 to 4 inches tall. However, don't be fooled by it's short stature. This plant will form a large clump that can easily fill a 14-inch pot. Of course, that will be a few years down the road. Look for flowers in late winter and early spring. FOR THE EXPERIENCED GROWER.
