I've had this pitcher plant for around 4 months and it's shown lots of growth. The leaves appear to be a little wavy though :? . It's hanging under a creek myrtle and receives intermediate amounts of light. It's also watered with distilled water, so I don't think that's the issue. Are wavy leaves even a problem?

Wavy leaves can be a sign of low humidity, but if the plant is producing pitchers it's nothing to worry about. Some species and hybrids will do this all the time though. N. truncata and N. maxima "wavy leaf" come to mind.
