Question about Dormancy and Plant Division

My VFT decided to split a couple months back and now the smaller VFT has traps that are about 1 cm in length.

The large and small VFT are still living in the same pot (the one that it came in) and my question is: Does the smaller plant need to go through dormancy? Ideally, I would like to plant them in separate pots during march/april ...

For dormancy I plant on putting the pot near a cold window since it worked out well last winter I know the large plant will do fine near a cold window but am afraid that it might kill off the smaller VFT.

Any comments are appreciated! Thanks.
 
Yes the small plant can go through dormancy. And while their dormant seperate them.
 
Even tiny seedlings a couple of months old can survive a harsh dormancy.

The new plant is no different from the mother plant and knows the exact time of year. It will need a dormancy.
