plant wont go dormant


Question
flytraps
flytraps  
Hello, I have a problem in as much as my flytraps won't go dormant. They are in an unheated greenhouse, with doors & windows open, and the outside temp. is close to, or a little below freezing, & still they are producing new traps. Any suggestions?
many thanks & a merry christmas to you all

Hi Paul,

Thank-you.  I'm glad you like our website.  I'm going to direct you there to watch our December podcast, since we talk about this subject.  Your flytraps look perfectly normal for this time of year, and they are dormant believe it or not.  Take a look:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jm-yFO3flKA&list=PLD2582DE646FE73D0&feature=playe

Good Growing!
