Heliamphora pulchella

This species, certainly one of the smallest ones, nevertheless especially after having formed dense clumps might easily be the most attractive one. Especially the forms occurring on the Chimanta group of Tepuis which are characterised by the long hair inside the pitchers and deep red coloration which they get in full sun are simply spectacular when seen in the wild. Unfortunately it is very hard to get that extent of coloration in cultivated plants.

Heliamphora pulchella (Akopan Tepui) As the other varieties from the Chimanta group of Tepuis this plant is characterised by the long and prominent hair inside the pitchers and the deep red coloration.
