    • Trivia
      Both William H. O'Brien and William J. O'Brien appear in this film (uncredited) as reporters.
    • Goofs
      The montage of newspaper front pages includes a photo of Polly posing with one of the blooming money trees in her backyard. But by the time anyone (including press) became aware of her secret, the trees were already bare, so no one would have had any reason to photograph her picking money off trees.
    • Quotes

      Phil Baxter: I married you for your brains, mmm-hmm. They disturbed me. They still disturb me... more than ever.

      Polly Baxter: Mmm-hmm. That's supposed to be sarcasm. Well, for your information--in case you're interested, I have more brains in my head than most people have in their little finger.

      Phil Baxter, Polly Baxter: That I give you.

    Enjoyably light comedy
    Irene Dunne is irrepressible as a housewife who grows a money tree in her yard. Dunne truly is the show but gets plenty of able support. Dean Jagger is appropriately befuddle as her stuffy husband who finds himself fighting a moral dilemma all by himself. Richard Crenna is marvelous in a key supporting role. Not much substance, but an engaging way to kill an hour and a half.
