# this is hwahwa, my venus flytrap. the colder months are coming soon…

_Posted by loree on 2023-09-13_

this is hwahwa, my venus flytrap. the colder months are coming soon so i’ve been debating on how to keep her dormant during the winter! i live in zone 6, which is a little too cold to just have her outside, but my apartment complex doesn’t really have any indoor cold spots where i can let her sit.  
i read that a protected outdoor dormancy is suitable if you live in a colder area, so i’ve been looking into these tiny portable greenhouse things—so you think putting her outside in one of these will work? any tips are appreciated!
