You write "I live in New Jersey where the winters are
chilly and sometimes reach temperatures just above 0
degrees. I have a pitcher plant, VFT's, and
a few Sundews. How should I keep them dormant? I
don't think that I have that much room in the
refrigerator?".
> If you have long periods of below 25 F
temperatures(more than a couple of days in a row) you
should bare-root the VFTs
and Sarracenias, wrap the roots with damp long-fiber
sphagnum, put them in plastic baggies, and refrigerate
them, OR
consider an unheated room (perhaps the garage).
Take care,
Michael Pagoulatos
