Nice, robust looking plants and as you mentioned the lack of humidity doesn't seem to be bothering them.
Thanks for the pics!
Peace!

Thanks Matt, Caleb, Omar, Kevin, Eric an ES..

Well, Over many year's ov "data" AKA Experiments i've notice that most Nepenthe's grow better in lower humidity than higher.. sure they get bigger pitcher's than lower humidity. But most ov the plant growin' in Lower humidity are more strong they can survive heat over 130F (yes it get's that hot when its sunny in my east window) the only down side to this is they need to be watered ever evening since evaporation. but i do supply them with cool night's from time too time since some times it goes below 70F here or i accidentally leave that cooler on hehe. Also the leaves seem to get much more thicker than normal.. the only Nepenthes i've had trouble growing was N. Rajah... that one so difficult won't adapt to this environment.. member fellow's ADAPTATION is the key in the plant's survival.

Allen,

Neat, that looks just like my alata. Mine is outside, so there is a color difference but, other than that, yours looks great. One of my pitchers is turning brown, should I cut it like I do dionea? Just thought I'd ask while I was thinking about it. :)

They really aren't that hard to grow, actually one of the easiest of the the nephs.
