yes even here in florida they go dormant..when mine first start to go to sleep i help them along,,i start cutting of leaves,,NO water at all..root rot is the #1 killer in winter..even in bloom not to wet,i let mine dry out a little inbetween..as soon as they wake up feed,feed,feed...and if old enough bloom,bloom,bloom
