here is why i ignore cuttings for months on end

the last time i looked at this guy was May when we moved to the house. i though it was going to die as the growing tip had turned brown but i balanced the pot(inside a ziplock) next to one of my frog tanks under the lights and promptly forgot about it. tonight i happened to glance over and thought "what the heck is that?" having forgotten all about it. i opened it up and to my surprise i found this:

Those are some seriously good looking plants. That unopened pitcher looks awesome.

lol i do basically ignore them. they get watered every other week. when i remember i mist them(maybe 4 times a week?)

i hadnt actually opened up the plastic all the way for several weeks as the base ment has been quite cool so they havent been drying out very fast. i had no clue about the bongso pitcher forming. the aristo was a surprise but i think its fairly new anyway as its not fully inflated yet. the veitchii x eymae i have known about as its been trying to leave the chamber and is poking out of the plastic
 
Nice plants, but I just can't ignore them
