For the last 2 days I noticed the leafs going limp and folding like in the picture. The new vases are dying too.

What can I do?

How long have you had it?

Looks like the same ventrata I bought off Amazon, same seller on eBay too.

When I got mine I just threw it outside, couple pitchers died but started growing new ones pretty quickly.

It needs more water. The media should be moist at all times.

I've had it for 2 months. This week the temperature rose to 45 degrees. The humidity dropped to 26%. I've been spraying destiled water everyday but maybe it's not enough. I can move the plant to a room with lower temperature but it won't get much sun. Should I do that?
I got the plant in a store but it's from monkeyjars.

Is it outside? Im assuming it is, I cant imagine anyone would let their home get to 113F inside, which would mean outside is much hotter than 113F even if you didn't cool your home in anyway.
