Well, this is the batch I started with... I think I've done pretty well with everything except for the AV 'Irish Flirt' and the Chirita 'Aiko' which I lost within the first week or so. That was back in Sept/Oct.

These were my first ever Gessies and I've learned a thing or two about them since then. I've started using the correct ferts on a regular basis.
I've learned about Dixie cups, styro cups, and the like... *cheaper versions of azalea pots :)*
I've learned how to grow neat little plants from only leaves.
I've learned that I don't care for how 'unshapely' the Episcias get.
I've learned to appreciate even the tinniest little plants... ie. the S. pussila
I've learned that I love the Streps over everything else I have here. I'll be wanting more of those for sure :)
