This is quite normal. For me, the plant does best in the cooler weather, growing well and flowering. After flowering, it is not uncommon for the rosettes to die back: for me this is during the summer. Now that the nights are again getting cool, my plants are growing again. If yours are in terraria, now is a good time to do some housekeeping by trimming the old brown leaves off as they may provide a start for mold that could affect the plant.
My D. Adelea wilted black and died. I up-rooted it and found the roots to be still intact. Not having to much hope, I repotted the roots in sphagnum moss and basically left it alone for a week or two. To my surprise, the dead plant had sprouted little d. adelea from the roots.
Adeleas are not known for seeds as I have tried that method before. They mostly seed out shoots. My adeleas went through the same phase of almost death. Then I purchased a 10-gallon terrarium and they are doing mighty fine.
