When do VFT go dormant?

I live in NC, home of the VFT. We've had nightly temps down to 31 degrees F. My VFTs don't show any sign of wanting to go dormant. Do I just have to wait until the days get shorter or is temp the main factor? I've read that the leaves will begin to die off and the plant will recede into a hibernaculum when its time to go dormant. What time of year is typical for this to happen?
