Depends on the form. The regular D. binata (sometimes called 'T' form, needs dormancy.) Other forms with leaves that branch a lot usually are more tropical and do not require dormancy. Though, if your plant seems to be dead or is stopping growth in winter, that usually means it is trying to go dormant.

It is the 'T' form. Dormancy needed...got it! Thank you.

hello TY for ansewering the question I needed to know . I have a Drosera Binata T form .It's now Sept 2007 And it's answered the question once and fot all . That untill now has been counterdictory untill now . MY Sundew is still putting out new leaves . And it;s still producing muslage .I think when it does go dormant . I'll take some root cutting's to propigate . Just to ensure new plantlet's just to have some flurish during the winter months to enjoy .Ty and happy growing .Scott

Here's what I do for D. binata, and a few other sundews:

Just take leaf cuttings and put in a sealed container of distilled water. Place in indirect light and ignore for a few weeks. Get a magnifying glass and check it out. You can easily get 15-20 plantlets from one leaf!
