Can anyone help? I keep my pitcher plant in my bathroom, so the atmosphere is warm and moist, although it is kept in the window there is no direct sunshine, although light levels are good. I bought it just before Christmas when it had lots of mature pitchers on it. As they died I removed them, since then new pitchers continue to be produced, as they open I make sure that I pour a small amount of soft water into them, as instructed. But as they get bigger the top of the pitcher turns brown and shrivels as you can see from the picture. Any ideas about what I may be doing wrong? My lovely plant is otherwise doing well, I've taken some cuttings which are doing well.
