yours are even redder than mine! i've gotten two as well.
Your N. dubia look very nice. I hope yours darken as they grow more. I'll be keeping this thread updated every pitcher, lol.

Dubia.....hard in ITALY
Even in the Canteen I encounter difficulties growing this plant nicely....Summer is too hot....and I am trying to keep my place cool in the 2 hot Summer months by reducing to half the Neon Lights....from 16 h x day to 8 with half of light in order not to produce too much heat.
The heat must be dissiped totally during the 16 Hours of LIGHTS OFF.
As soon the temperatures remains around 22 min and 25 max ( celcius ) some clones already begins to show some light suffering....( for example...loosing the old pitchers...and reduncing pitchers number on the same plant).
I find more difficult N. dubia than N. inermis.
Some time ago...it was discovered in nature some dubias growing around 1100 Mt o.t. Seaside....any news if now they have been micropropagated?

ting: mine looked the same...now it has no pitchers, but bringing it down to the lower 60's at night has helped it to not-die.
MrAga: And here I thought N. dubia would be easier than the inermis I almost killed :-/
Here's a pic of mine...had it a couple months already, glad to see it wants to work on some pitchers again (click for bigger)--
