Heliamphora minor is one of the more widely available species in the genus for cultivation.

Typically, H. minor is grown under strong fluorescent lights in a terrarium, or in a greenhouse with partial sunlight.

Like other carnivorous plants, H. minor requires water free from added minerals and chemicals.

Heliamphora plants also require a high humidity level (70+%), which can be achieved in a greenhouse or terrarium.

Also, the highly reflective surface of the indumenta may make foliage more visible to flying insects with light-sensitive vision.
