Only ones not going into the fridge are the gazzillion VFT babies and youngest ones.. :-D
 
yep, mine are all headed into dormancy now too...outside though lol. gonna move them into the shed here when we start getting consecutive nights of freezing temps
 
Very nice looking Guava Sawtooth I really like that vareity I can't wait to see it next growing season maybe this spring I'll get me one it's my second favorite type of flytrap.

Thanks for posting pictures I bet next season they'll look even better and speaking of putting flytraps away I think my bogs ready to set up in the garage after I prep them a little and wrap the pot up..
 
Wow...that Guava is a beaut! Nice!

One thing I can say about VA...I just leave my flytraps outdoors and let them take care of themselves. Only my dog and the squirrels are problems.
