Carol,
yes - my Pitcher plants have survived. But they looked really very bad after the snow melted and I thought they were toast. But I left them alone and I see new growth in the center of the clumps. Once they are looking stronger I will cut the old bad growth.
I took pictures just before, have to see if they show up decently enough for you to see.
I like your Sundew too. I just added one yesterday to the bog, but it may not be hardy around here, together with 2 small Pings.
I don't know if you know about the bath tub-Bog (filled with Canadian Peat-moss on top of gravel.) we started a couple of years ago? After growing mosses for the first year I bought the Pitcher plants and they endured now 2 Winters in that location. The Bog sits in a very sunny location and only sees rain water.
