I have only had most of them a few months and I'm finally getting new leaves getting new leaves and pitchers. Especially happy since a few came without pitchers so I get to see what they look like now.

What a lovely setup! The plants look great and I love your little natural rock bed. My tent is just draining into a bucket right now, but I would so much rather have some sort of natural moss mat down there to soak everything up.

Thanks! I use horticultural charcoal and perlite since they're light and won't scratch the glass. If you do make a similar setup, I'd be very careful about using fertilizer, as algae has been a problem with this setup.
