That is super beautiful!
Can you post views from other sides?
Great idea for a planting!!!!!
Looking good -- though, personally, I really liked the look in post #18.
How often do you have to water it? Are you keeping it in a terr?
It's going to be sweet when it fills in!! Fantastic work Jon, almost makes me want to take the original apart.

let's hope they grow in! it's getting quite bakey-wakey here...you should join the no-pot bandwagon train. everybody's doing it.That will look amazing once they grow in! I might have to try something like this in the future
they do it naturally in the wild. good light will keep the plant flush against the rock, in their rosetted pattern. the pitchers will develop orthogonal to the leaves.Very nice! I wonder how some of the plants will respond to being planted at an angle.
Beautiful job. I love it. I will have to try doing something like this in the future someday. haha. So awesome.
Hello Friend! Good hearing from you, it's been a while hasn't it! Hope all is well! Growing anything exciting lately?

Hey Jon,
Nice to hear from you. Things have been super busy. I recently (3-4 months ago) had to do a major repot of everything. A fern had completely overrun my tank and I had to remove everything and repot. I also repotted a bunch of valuable nepenthes seedlings that I grew for 3y in new mineral media (akadama/kanuma) and lost almost everything . Just trying to pick up from where I left off. Lesson learnt: don't make drastic changes. Thankfully, my older neps in akadama actually are still doing great. The seedlings in kanuma really didn't like it. Lost so many amazing plants like xkinabaluensis etc. Tanks are still looking pretty messy. Have to clean them up one of these days and take some nice pics.
cheers

Ouch, that's a lot of pain! Sorry for your losses but I'm also glad that you were able to recoup and remain in the hobby! Why do suspect the seedlings performed poorly?
So far so good. Nothing dead yet.
Took out some sprigs of small bucephalandra, to add some color and texture. Also attempting a mixed carpet of moss and utricularia gramminifolia to cover the turface
