Nice recovery Kris.

And BigBella, you really need to write a book or make a website on CP care. All of your plants are just amazing.

Thanks for the comment, but I do cheat a bit. The climate here in Northern California gets the most credit; and it is the primary reason why I don't busy myself with many lowland species. I am able to grow highland Nepenthes, Heliamphora, Darlingtonia, Cephalotus, and others with little real care, save for watering and fertilizing them on a regular basis and preventing exposure to frost. Here are a few other highlanders that grow outside:

Ooh, nice macro! I've got to get myself one of them x_x I would love to try out villosa...see if I can. (Edit: My conditions are low 70s-high 60s at day and 60-50 at night, btw. That would be great for macro, right? Gotta solve my humidity problem first :-P)
 
Must be nice to be able to grow them outside! Looks like I need to pack up and move back to Cali. I was born there after all.
