I just purchased a couple of these guys in the proverbial "Death cubes" at a local nursery in a greenhouse. each plant has a single 3'' long pitcher that's healthily growing. I replanted them in this 6'' pot of 50/50 spaghum/perlite. I'm in zone 6a, and have this pot along with another pot with a VFT in it on my back porch. I have the option for either direct sun, or bright indirect for multiple hours each day. I obviously plan on bringing this plant indoors during the colder months.

Also, should I be concerned about the reddish hue to these leaves?

I've browsed through the forums a good bit already, and seem to have a decent grasp on the over arching trends of caring for Nepenthes; but any other tips for a new grower?
