They look pretty different when shot from that angle. I don't think I've ever seen anyone do that before (only for Darlingtonia and Sarracenia psittacina).
 
The first two are ‘Reptian Rose’ pitchers. The third one is oreophila x flava hybrid (left) and ‘Doreen’s Colossus’ (right).
 
They are gorgeous!

Btw the unknown hybrid I got from you at the meet up is really cool. Looks like oreophylla is very prominent in it. Here's a pic. Any idea what it could be mixed with?
 
Nice one! Looks like flava may be in the mix and perhaps leucophylla in there as well? Definitely prominent oreophila genes. Those plants I believe were from a batch of mixed open-pollinated seed collected from specie as well as hybrid sarrs. Sowing mixed OP seed is like a "box of chocolates, never know what you are going to get."
