My sarracenia flower has put out a flower in spring and all the petals has fallen off. Some black mold has started to grow in the inside of the umbrella and on some nectar that is on the young seed pod. Will this effect the seeds?

Has the flower been pollinated ?/ by you or naturally ?/ , the mould will kill of any seed production if not all ready , unless you treat it, suggest more sun and ventilation , mould only occurs when low light and poor ventilation is present , fix that fix the mould !!

I will be sure to brush off the mold and kill it right away. (The mold has been feeding off the nectar and pollen and i pollinated it)
