    I’m new to them as well. All my pitchers died and I was at a loss. I saw some advice on TikTok that said to put it in sphagnum moss because they naturally grow in swamps and like to stay moist. I did it and she is back to thriving. No new pitchers yet but her leaves look so much better and I’m getting new leaves!

    Some pitcher plants have to be planted in sphagnum moss; I have a napenthese in 1:1 sphagnum and perlite. Humidity is apparently the biggest reason that they don't sprout pitchers. I had to put mine in a tiny little fish tank for awhile, so I could give it a spritz and the air would stay humid around it. You can also use humidity trays, which are just trays with a layer of rocks (like large fish gravel size?) that you put water in to just under the tops of the stones. Then you put your plant on top of/over the tray. The rocks help the water evaporate and it creates a collumn of humid air for your plant. Good luck!
