You can put 3-4 sticks/stakes around it in the pot and tie a circle of string around all the pitchers. I believe that naturally they are supported by tall grass and other clumps of sarracenia, so some pitchers tipping over in a pot is not that strange.

Or you can let it be and it will eventually start making more wind resistant pitchers, to an extent of course.
