Found this beauty at a WalMart store...
As I see it, my challenge (beyond not killing it) is to give it enough light to restore and maintain that awesome red color.
Noob Question: Will the color return to the traps that grew out pale, or will I have to wait for new ones to grow up red?
Also, does this variety have a name?
Thanks!

Never try to apply a cultivar name to a plant that didn't come with one. This is a typical, and should remain labeled as such. Also, lighting determines pigmentation, so higher light will produce more colorful leaves (including the ones already opened up as green); it shouldn't be an issue giving the plant enough light unless you have no means of putting it outside (they don't care about humidity) or by a very sunny window.

Thanks, hcarlton! 'Typical' it is, and shall remain. I'm in NM, at 7500 ft. Sunshine is the one thing I do not lack. Glad to know humidity is not an issue.
