Thank you guys, your advice is much appreciated.

I kept watering mine about once a week, but only half the amount I give during its growing season. Now that is has no leaves at all, I water even less. Will move it to the wall next to the house, there it gets only morning sun and no rain at all.

It did rain here in Berlin too, but not a lot and about every 10 days or so. It also has been quite warm, with temperatures regularly over 30 C. Last year the warmer days period was less consistent, it also rained less (especially in May-June), which made me water it more often. I like to observe patterns, to better understand my plants.

Cheers,
Vlad
