Do you live in a cool or cold climate? Just put your plant in an area
where it will receive reduced light and cool temperatures ( anything
from 20-40f) from November thru March. Reduce the level of moisture in
the pot by holding back on the water until the surface of the medium is
JUST damp. Give your plant a light misting with a proven fungicide such
as Benomyl once a month or so during the winter. This practice has
worked for me for several years. I treat all my temperate CP such as
Dioneae and Sarracenia the same way.
Happy Carnivoring,
