Heliamphora Spots

Question

Brown Spot Hello,

Some of my Heliamphoras are getting these brown spots on their pitchers. Is it an insect or disease?

Answer
It's neither insect or disease. It's simply an older pitcher nearing the end of its life cycle and/or the growing conditions are too dry. Not much to do other than increase the humidity and allow the natural life cycle for each leaf to happen.

For more information on growing Heliamphora, watch Volume 3 of the Grow Carnivorous Plants DVD series.

Good growing!
