Refrigerator Pot vs Potless for Flytrap

Hello CP fans! I am new to the CP forum but have been on the orchid forum for a little while now.

I am trying to coax my flytrap through its second winter with me. We moved last year and have a well lit garage that's currently hovering around 36-38F. Currently the little bugger seems to like the garage and is still putting out new leaves!, but I'm afraid it's going to get too cold as Iowa gets serious about winter. I'm considering the fridge route.

For people who put the whole pot in the fridge, are you continuing to water? And/or do you put it in a ziplock bag?

Have people had better luck keeping it potted or using bare roots?

Thanks! --Ateles
