alpine : Let’s water every 10-11 days, or even more often using 1124-1125 glasses of water, remembering that the soil should always be slightly moist and cool, but not soaked with water.

During the cold months it’s best to shelter these plants from the most intense freezing; let’s move them to a cold greenhouse, or let’s cover them with some a non-woven fabric.
