That depends on the variety and where in the world it comes from. Most dichotoma, including giant, and t - form go dormant. Giant tends to die back to its roots, while t-form forms a hibernaculum. Multifida experience warmer winter conditions, so they don't really go dormant.

This sundew is my first carnivorous plant. I got it in hopes it might help get rid of fungus flies that I've yet to successfully eradicate. It appears pretty happy in my bathroom that has indirect but bright light. I think I see where it's caught a few. I'm not optimistic for total eradication but if I were to be so fortunate, is there something else I should feed it? If so, how much and how often? It doesn't appear to be a fast grower but is it okay to stay in its original pot?

It could use more sun, which will in turn create more dew, which will catch more bugs

Some petiolaris drosera (The ones like fireworks). Falconeri is the red rosette one with the wide leaves. The two sandy pots with the tiny rosettes are pygmy sundews. Second to last is a Drosera capensis Alba
