Hi Jeff,
This gigantea guards my vegetables from bugs, maybe I'll give it dormancy next winter.

Willy:

You don't need to induce dormancy, but I wonder if ithe plant does, in some small way, benefit from the vacation. Perhaps greater vigour /growth rate in following season, higher viability of pollen, or number of flowers, etc.

Might be worth investigating?!?

I agree! I am going to try to induce dormancy for some plants next winter and see what's the difference.

Luv those fly pics! They look downright juicy. How can any horticulturalist not fall in love with pings after seeing those pics.
