Re: D. intermedia.....
I think you are on the right track. If they are temperate their growth will begin to slow without reducing light hours. You are on the right track with the fridge for dormancy. If you reduce the light hours and they form hibernacular then I would refridgerate for 3-4 months. If growth only slows then I think you have the tropical forms.
Not very good though that you purchase mixed seeds and get only one variety. Especially when they don't know what varieties they are selling. Doesn't sound like a great place to buy from to me. Unfortunately you don't usually find out until after you have purchased something that you thought would be something else. Cheers.
