A "pygmy" problem

Ok, so ive read about Pygmy sundews, and i like em.
But, they grow in Australia and places near there, so their biological clocks are backwards from ours (or are ours backwards from theres?!

),anyways, they go dormant in the dry Australian summer, and grow in the wet Australian winter. So because America is on the other side of the world from Australia, does this mean they go Dormant in American Winter, and Grow in American Summer? Also, is it true that toilets flush the other way around in the land down under?
Thanks in advance,

If you get the plants in the Northern Hempisphere they are already adapted to winters and summers.  So, the answer is "no".  They grow in American Winters and are dormant in American Summers.

From what I heard, the answer is yes on this one.

happy growing
