LOL... I wish I had been able to buy them all! Thanks for the kind words all! I'm excited to see the jamban grow up. The pitchers are a really cool shape, and they stay relatively small.
Since I moved to a place with higher humidity, I took my droseras and less demanding neps out of the terrarium and made a miniature version of a grow rack. A friend of mine gave me a couple orchids as a house warming gift, so they're in there too. I'll have to get some pics up soon. So far, everything seems to be acclimating well!

Awesome! I want a grow rack so bad to use in the summer but I dont have any great place to put one...
In an interesting twist, my camera actually let me take and transfer the pics before the battery died. :thumbsup:
So, the rack is 2' wide and about 30" tall. On top, I have the same terrarium I was using for the Heli, Ceph, and strict highland neps.
The bottom section is lit by a 2' 2bulb T5HO unit, and wrapped in white plastic around the back and sides (to reflect light and hold in some humididty). This part holds the intermediate neps and sundews. I also keep the front wrapped in (mostly) clear plastic, again to try and hold in some of the humidity.
I mentioned to a friend that I wanted to try growing some orchids, and she got me a couple as a housewarming present.
And some gratuitous closeups of the heli and the ceph, 'cause they're my favs, and they're doing so well! The ceph has at least 4 new pitchers starting out, and the heli has 2 new growths!

Can't wait to see what you come up with, Chris!
I just stopped into a local greenhouse and got talking about CPs with the owner. She said "yeah, we usually have fly traps". I asked about "the rest" and she said "what else is there?". LOLOL. We had a nice long talk about all the different species and such. She said she may be calling in the spring for a "consult". Hehe.
