That is good to know. Since mine is just starting a new growth cycle, though, I don't think it's a good idea to dry it out for this winter. I'll let it grow through and then next fall decide what to do. We have a really short growing season due to being high up in the Catskills -- with some of my plants that have the ability to do well without a dormant season, I've learned to bring them in before they can get too cold and let them think they've moved to the tropics...
