Bright red pitcher on a Cephalotus, problem?

I've had my Ceph for about a year and half now and its been doing great as far as I can tell. Today I noticed one of the pitchers was bright red, much brighter than the rest. The other picthers are mostly a dark purple with green areas. What is causing this? My first though was disease of some type. Should I cut it off?
I've been growing it inside on and windowsill with a florescent lamp for extra lighting.

Nothing to worry about, the pitcher is dying, pitchers tend to adopt bright shades of green, yellow and red as they near the end of their life. New ones will grow in to take its place. Wonderful cephalotus by the way.
