Should we examine it closely? First, what plant is this? Oh, of course, it's a house plant; it says so at the top of the tag. But it also says it's a landscape plant. Hmmm.
Let's continue. This house-landscape plant should be placed in "Full sun, outside keep soil moist..." Run on sentence...check. Redundancy....check. Glad I didn't place this house plant in full sun inside with the soil moist.
I could on and on about things like the inconsistent punctuation, capitalization, and spacing, but why? The tag is useless, and actually a bit frustrating, but the plant is really healthy.
What nerve you have expecting plant tags to be informative or at least suggestive;) I guess the wholesale nurseries think we are pretty dumb: put outside, water, sun...duh! We want details, no?

You've hit the nail on the head! What's the point of a tag? Thank God for the internet, because when all else fails, you can always do a google search!
ReplyDeleteI've seen that tag before on everything from coffee to bananas to you guessed it, passionflower! I got mine from a walmart with that tag, but luckily it did well in even the most adverse and swampy conditions. I would actually give it just a little bit of shade if possible so if it fruits you don't scorch the fruit!
