Can anyone identify this Sarrenia? Any care tips?

This is the first Sar I bought a while back.

I now know that it is not a Cobra plant, but do not know what it is.

Since I got it, earlier this summer...it hasn't really had any new growth. I see flies go in and out of the pitchers all the time, and to my knowledge, it has never caught anything on its own. I have never seen any insects inside that it has caught, though i have fed it a few mealworms 9which i never use any more) and fruitflies.

It is on my balcony with my VTS and other Sarrcenias, all of which are doing quite well. Gets about 3-5 hours of direct sun per day and lots of ambient light for rest of the day, when the sun is behind buildings.

Any help?

Thanks!
