Keeping Jatropha curcas L. in the office 

The Jatropha plant does not resist to frost. It has to be kept inside the house during winter time.

To water it once a week is enough. Better dry as too wet.

If the plant looses its leaves, which is very normal, give it less water, only all 2 or 3 weeks. After 1 to 3 months there will grow new leaves.

If the plant get too big, just cut it. It will grow new branches soon.

I didn't observe flowering yet.
