Received this plant as a Nepenthes burkei. It was cut from a large vine with green pitchers that had red spots and peristomes. However, the tendrils on this plant are turning pink! I’ve never seen a burkei with pink tendrils and am wondering if it’s actually a ventricosa or something else.

Idk, the panther like pattern & shape at that size makes me think of burkei.

I was wondering if the pink tendril was just because it got too much light.
So I experimented and gave it less light but the next tendril still turned pink while the pitcher didn’t develop its pattern or color.
