Hello, this is my first internet post really relating to carnivorous plants so be sparing if I forget anything crucial.

Moving onto the plant, I purchased this as an unknown hybrid from SarraceniaNorthwest a couple years ago and to my surprise it really flourished after about a year. My initial assumption was N. Spectabilis crossed with something else but i'd love to hear what you guys think!
Some extra information on the plant: the leaves are dark green but are often red during early development and near the stem. Lower leaves are also somewhat hairy if that helps.

I'd be glad to provide more information/pictures if you need it, just ask!

After revisiting some pictures I think the N. Maxima prediction is accurate, but this plant is downright tumultuous and grew a five foot vine in less than a year. Thank you both for the replies thus far though I appreciate it.
