I had been growing a Job's tears plant outdoors and brought it inside because I have a tropical hibiscus in the same pot. I just cut off the plant and now it is growing really well indoors in a window.
Well, I decided to look up info about it to see if it is actually used as a houseplant in some cases.
I noticed that someone had perhaps not known how to check the boxes in certain instances on the descriptions etc.
It has almost every known choice given for several things, such as how to collect seeds.
Can someone who monitors and corrects this please have a look . Also Tell me where such errors are to be reported.
Thanks

If you click the PlantFiles tab, there is a red button at the top of the page (under the tabs) that is called "Report an error"

Cheryl is right! Also we appreciate it if you push the report button while you are on the entry you are reporting about, we can then view it straight away and see for ourselves :)

Ok, I looked at that error and it came up with some choices that looked like it was for reporting other things about Dave's garden. I will go back and press it. Thanks

Windy I got your report and corrected the entry. Just now saw this thread and wanted to tell ya Jobs Tears can get very large, so I am not sure you really want it as a house plant. Of course it might not get as big container grown. The seeds look like beads and can be used for jewlery. They are various colors. It does self seed and can be invasive.

I did have some in a container outdoors and also some in the ground. The container ones did not get as big as you suggested.
I was just wondering about the houseplant idea because I figured it would just die since it was indoors when I cut it back. But now it is green and growing away. Go figure, huh? If you don't care if something dies it lives just to spite you. LOL
