Precautions for winter cultivation of Milan flowers

1. Milan is not cold-resistant, so it should be moved indoors in time before the frost comes. Do not place it next to the heater or near the air-conditioning vent, but open the windows frequently for ventilation.

3. In winter, if the indoor temperature of Milan is more than ten degrees, you can water it normally. But when the temperature is low, you only need to water it a little. When the temperature is below zero, you can put a plastic bag so that it can safely survive the winter and bloom next year.
