But it's healthy and getting bigger so that's good.

If you have your sarracenia outside, be careful about those rings you have supporting the pitchers. If it gets a bit windy, the pitchers will break over at the point where the rings touch the pitcher. Been there, done that unfortunately

If you grow them in good light, they should be stronger and be able to withstand a normal wind. A big storm would be another story though...

Nice looking plant BTW,
