I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the plant, called Jerusalem Cherry. Apparently it is a house plant(?) I thought it was an outdoor plant---I need to
know what the procedure is for getting it ready to bring indoors (I have it in a very large pot)
and how do I prepair to grow new plants in the spring?

welcome to the forum!!!

there's some info right here on the forum about the jerusalem cherry

here's some more info from

perdue university

and
dave's garden

depending on what area you live in, you might be able to keep the plant outside.

you can find your zone here

they've updated the zone chart in the past couple of years...broke out some of the zones and i think a couple changed completely.

if you're on the edge of two different zones, that gives you more leeway with plants...lucky you!
