Ahh hamata, arguably one of the most amazing and beautiful neps discovered. My experiences with hamata have taught me many new things and busted myths about this species. It is not nearly as dependent on very high humidity as I thought. It would pitcher in relative humidities of 30-70%. It would grow fine despite minimal drops in temperature at night. It is really one of the easier species, if not one of the cheaper ones. Unfortunately, mine is no longer with me due to mites. It is missed. I never got to watch it grow up, but before the mites it was a tough, dependable plant.
Here it was in August, four months after I got it. Please post your hamata pics, seed grown or tc.
