Ceph flower closeup in case you're curious (clickable for larger size) ![](http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2787/4462935355_482e8b147f.jpg) H. nutans from Lloyd. Heli's haven't done too well for me in my highland tank, but recently this guy put up a pretty nice pitcher. ![](http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4036/4463714342_609e171958_o.jpg) Thanks for looking!

Looking good there Z.
I can't recall ever seeing a Heli flower from that angle before. Very interesting.

very very nice!! We can see the pollen production starting from the stamens. if I were you...I would collect some it...and try selfing the plant once the stigma matures. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Lloyd - It's doing great, but for a time it looked a little down. Hopefully it will start picking up speed. dvg - It's a Ceph flower ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) vraev - I took this pic a few weeks ago, and I did try to pollinate it. So far I have only harvested a disappointingly small amount of seeds from it, but it's better than none!

Oops. ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) And I have a Heli flowering right now too...no wonder it looked so different. ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)

I remember that your "nutans" root looked a little damaged so I'm glad it came through under your TLC.
