Normally interruptus has a dormant period of a few months
after leaf shed and then starts growing by itself. So I would keep it dry untill
life returns to it.

Hiyer!
Too bad someone withe experience with this species did not write in. I
was interested in the answer. I have no experience with it, and no literature
on it. From the IAS website, I see that it is from Viet Nam. I
would leave in soil, potted up nicely, sitting on a tray of damp sand. This
should maintain some little moisture if the roots needs it, and hopefully
not let it rot if it wants to be dry.
Good luck!

I have an am.Interruptus that I bought off of
ebay, I've kept it warm and grew it all winter and now its
gone dormant. The leaf had turned yellow and was shriveled
when I removed it. When I dug up the tuber, a lot of the roots
had died off but it still had living white roots, some of
which look like they are actively growing. The tuber also
looks light in color. If I didnt know what it was, it could
pass for a titanum.
My question is: will it stay
dormant all year or will it wake up in a few months like a
titanum would? If not then should I just let it dry out and
sit or should I store it in soil?

recession,
