I planted this Dioscorea in August 2018.

It quickly germinated and grew leaves. The leaves began to fall in March, so I thought it was entering summer dormancy.

I stopped watering it.

At some point in the past couple weeks, it has sprouted another leaf. Am I supposed to keep watering it? I had thought it was in dormancy.

I got the seed on a lark, so I've been surprised that it has done well. I'm just confused about why it would send up another leaf after it lost all the others. Dormancy is "supposed" to be in summer.
