You misunderstood me, the old pitchers formed on the basal dry off, but the new pitchers keep forming on the media surface to replace the old ones.

I put the plant beside my house, getting only 1 to 2 hours of noon sun, the rest of the day is bright. The taller part of the stem is getting more direct sun. I'll try to mimic the environment in the wild to induce it to flower.
