This is my first vtf and it came bare root last Friday. My biggest question…is this in dormancy or tiny? I put it in a 2.7” pot with sphagnum. I tested a trap and it closed.  
Advice and opinions please 🙏

I don’t have much experience with this but I believe when they go dormant they die off. So it may just be in shock from the shipping and the trying to adjust
