What a beauty, Dave - you'll need a very BIG alpine house at this rate!

A larger alpine house is on my wish list Maggie but until then it is musical chairs.

A familiar case for many folks!  The rotation of plants in flower to higher elevations then relegation to below the bench afterwards - musical chairs it  is indeed!
