That is one of the good point about seed grown plants, you are more likely to get a plant that better adapted to your local climate. I found this with indica.
With Cape sundew I found there is difference in the growing vigour between varieties but all my plants still have go through summer where we don't really much temp drop at night. In fact the hottest part of 'day' can occur at 3am! The average temperature through Janurary is around 27.5 C. My highland Neps stuggle through summer while the lowlander love it!
