What kind of sarr is this?

I just wanted to test my knowledge and see if I was right. I bought this plant a couple days ago. I pulled the "this plant doesn't look so good, can I get it for cheaper?" It worked, this plant only cost me 50 cents

This sarr was labeled "purple pitcher plant." I thought that was pretty sad since it doesn't look anything like an S. purpurea.

I think it is an Sarracenia Minor. Since I'm not an expert yet, I am still unsure and wanted to ask y'all. Thanks

you and that label are both wrong , not purpurea nor minor , but your close on the minor , it does have a pitcher with small window like features . its an s. x wrigleyana , it is a cross betwen an s. leucophylla and pssitacina . that plant does'nt look like its in much bad shape , it has some really deformed leaves because of the cover of that pot that made its grow wrong . give that plant more time and sun , and it'll loom great again . good luck .
