FlytrapCare Carnivorous Plant Forums

I can't find the original thread, but there was a question about D. intermedia dormancy because theirs was acting weird. I proffered my experience of my intermedia (Cuba) pot, half going dormant, half not. The general consensus for the plants of the OP of that thread was that if they're still green, they're still good. However, a repot might be a good thing right before they wake up.
Now, with 80°F+ temps, mine did it again.
You can see two went dormant (yes, in the summer), while the rest are active.
These are due for a repot themselves, but I'll wait for Spring.

Anything is possible, but the seeds were labeled "Cuba", and I got them from a very reliable, very experienced drosera source. I know that tropical versions of temperate plants will still go dormant given the right cues, but to have a couple plants in a pot go dormant while the rest are not is the weird thing.
