S.minor does this alot for me also. I wish it wouldn't but I
think alot of S.minor that is out there have a some S.psittacina
in them which gives them that flop-over factor. Plants I grew
from seed of a self-pollinated floppy S.minor, about 1/16 of
them look just like S.psittacina! Anyway, no don't cut it off.
more pitchers are likely to flop over also, so get one of those
plastic rings to support the pitchers.
