I am way overthinking dormancy. I have successfully overwintered plants bringing them into an unheated room, however at the beginning of spring I built bogs in Rubbermaid containers that are not moveable.
My plan is to cut back the pitchers, cover with burlap and then mulch pine needles on top of the burlap. I am feeling confident with this. My concern is when it drops below 30 at night but 80 during the day (I'm in pa it's not totally out of the question.) Can I put a blanket on the soil if it's getting too cold at night but still nice during the day? Or once it cools down it's all over? If it's too hot will it mold under the burlap?
Also does d. Filiformis go dormant? A few showed up in the bogs and I don't know if they need removed.
Sorry for so many questions!! I feel like an extreme noob all over again hahaha
