ways to c
for your Ch
se
whether you prefer to keep it in
rs or out
rs:
1. Inrs-keep in a place wh
the lighting is sufficient (for example, a window sill) and wh
the humidity is high. When the winter season is done, you could place the plant outside and keep it th
until autumn so that the leaves will fall off naturally. To water the in
r type, make sure that the compost is always moist. Daily watering isn't necessary, the compost should be your gauge for when to water next.
2. Outrs-if your Ch
se
is used to the winter season, it will be able to cope even with the lowest temperatures so th
is no need to worry about it.
se should need more frequent watering than its in
r version.
