I have some sarracenias and recently they've been producing some strange growth, is this normal?
I leave them standing in at least 1 inch of water using a tray, i live in orange and leave them in full sun.

It’s normal for the oreophila to get strange pitchers in the summer. What are the other species

I don't know about the oreo but the other looks like it has pest damage. Perhaps thrips? You may need to treat it with insecticide.
