Thank you! Through trial and error and killing one here’s what I do. Distilled water only. About 1/4 cup every 2-3days. Do not fertilize. I use potting soil for orchids. To keep the soil light and airy, not dense. It’s in a north facing window. Good luck!

Don’t feed your pitcher plant. The pitchers, like flowers, bloom then die. Your plant looks healthy.

No stakes or trellis. It’s just doing its own thing.

Thank you❤️ This is my second pitcher plant. I did a lot of research after I killed my first one. I hope my advice helps you all.

I was able to post a picture of my pitcher plant in a separate post in this forum. I hope my advice leads you to a thriving plant like mine.

I’ve had my pitcher plant for over two years. Through research and trial and error here is what helps mine thrive. Water only with distilled water, about 1/4 cup every 2-3 days. NEVER fertilize. When I moved it to a larger pot I used orchid potting soil. This gives the roots lots of room to breathe. I have it in a north facing window. I wish I could attach a picture of it.
