I have the plant named as above. Mine is all red - petioles, traps etc and emerges red too. When I looked at the cpphotofinder website I see that there are 3 photos of the clone. Only insektenfang's photo looks like mine, the other two have green petioles and the red on the traps is a different colour. Can anyone shed light on this puzzle. Is mine and inseketfang's the true clone?
Here is mine

colour depends very much on growing conditions...

Mine all grow very red, but I find it a bit weedy and weak.

As mentioned by GoE, conditions can have a considerable effect on colour. Colour varies from season to season and changes throughout the season. The growing medium, prey can all influence it. As an example check out the VFTs in my pine needle experiment.
Pine needle exp
They look very different but are all divisions from the same plant and so are genetically identical
