QUESTION: What sarracinea is this?

ANSWER: It looks like a version of Sarracenia purpurea x leucophylla.  It could be a complex cross, but it definitely has leucophylla and purpurea in the mix.

Good growing!

QUESTION: And should I repot it?

Answer
It's not necessary.  It won't hurt the plant to keep it in the same pot until spring, and it won't hurt the plant if you chose to repot it.  So it's entirely a judgement call on your part.  If you're bothered by the roots coming out of the pot, go ahead and repot it now.  Otherwise, you can also wait if you prefer to do it in spring.  Use the soil mix as recommended on our website.
