How to Grow and Care for Baby's Tears in Containers
Intro: This creeping container plant has many common names in addition to baby’s tears, including angel's tears, mind-your-own-business, peace-in-the-home, pollyanna vine, mother of thousands, the Corsican curse and Irish moss (although it is not a moss). This container plant does well for centerpieces on tables (such as a cup and saucer brimming with baby’s tears) or as “ground” cover in pots with exposed dirt.
