Interesting this question was posed by a Malaysian, Zakhren, in CPUK:

I live in a warm country. Outside it can get to 35C on hot days. Indoors though the average temp is 27-32C (usually its 28-29). Is there a heli that likes, or can survive in these temps? I read a bit and saw that minor and heterodoxa can tolerate higher temps? Does that mean a hybrid between them is better? Because I saw this,

And I think the plant looks really nice. Deep reds to deep greens.

Hello,
the problem is not the day temperature but the temperature at night.
More heat tolerant ones are:
- Hybrids
- H. glabra
- H. heterodoxa
How about air conditioning?
I grow most of my young ones for establishing from tissue culture in air conditiond rooms for a while. A nighttime low of 18 degrees centigrade is sufficient for all species.
Bye

For those who grow them in this region (Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand and Philippines) what are your growing conditions?
