Here's an update. The one new pitcher is leaning toward the camera, so it doesn't look as tall, but it's only about an inch shorter than the tallest one. The difference in color after only a week is pretty amazing

I went away for about 4 days this weekend and I have to say I'm surprised at how the plants faired. I moved my native plants to the porch to keep them from drying up. They grew an alarming amount with only a few hours of morning sunlight! The purp grew and opened a new leaf, the Sarr seedling put on a few new leaves each, the D. intermedia doubled in size, the D. filiformis exploded with new growth, my mass of D. rotundifolia rebounded after flowering very nicely, and the Sarracenia hybrid opened a new leaf.
However, my N. x ventrata is dropping all of its pitchers after repotting and my D. adelae's new leaves turn black before they even uncurl.
When one thing does well the others suffer.....

adelaes are tough plants and grow back from the roots pretty well IME. What type of conditions is it in?
I'd like to add that the original mother plants I got from Jb died back sometime this past fall...then sent up all these!
It's in a 3 gallon metaframe terrarium. It might have dried up past its liking over the weekend. I gave it a good watering today after cutting off some dead leaves.
