I just bought this Sarracenia. Can anyone help with what species it might be?

It looks like a commercial hybrid, Sarracenia 'Scarlet Belle'

I'd say it needs much more light to get good pitcher development and color.

Here's a shot or two of my 'Scarlet Belle'.

It appears to be a common hybrid, sarracenia scarlet belle. Its a beautiful plant, when grown in the right conditions. Here's a pic of mine.Image

Yep, it does look like those plants. Is 'Scarlet Belle' a registered cultivar?
Should I keep it outside? That way it'll get more sunlight.

Yes it is.
Here's the list: http://legacy.carnivorousplants.org/cpn ... ations.htm

It would appreciate the higher light level if you moved it outside.

Good growing,
