Which Sundews Require Dormancy?

trying to find out which species of drosera actually needs a dormancy and the ones that dont.

Cold dormancy: rotundifolia, angelica, filiformis (both subs,) intermedia, linaris and the rest of the N. American Dews.
 
D.spathulata, adelae dont need dormancy.

Many drosera dont require dormancy, but some do like rotundfolia, binata, intermedia 'temperate forms' (intermedia 'cuba' doesnt need one)
 
D.binata and D.binata var. dichotoma types require dormany, while D.binata var. multifida types do not require dormancy.
 
I think I have a rotundifondila (sorry about spelling), but in another post they said that the plants from gublers are not rotundifondula but spathulata. My question is if I put a spathulata through dormancy just inn case it actually is a rotundifondula will it die? Even better, how can I tell for sure what it is? It didn't look like my other spathulata. It's a darker green and it's neater, I mean the hairs aren't so wild on it. They seem more organized. Can anyone tell from that or answer my other question? Sorry to invade CPSINC.
 
If it is from Gublers, it is a spath. There are many different var. etc. of spathulata that appear different from each other.
