I've never seen this before. There have been a flowering stem which I pinched off. But from the same stem, a new cluster of growth emerged. Several traps are growing mid air from this cluster. I will try to add additional photos later when the light is better.

It called false vivipary, and you can cut the stem about 1/2 inch below where the traps have grown out of and plant it. The existing traps may or may not die off, but it'll likely take off as it's own plant

Everything happens for a reason. Sometimes the reason is that I make bad decisions.
