Comment |
Clump-forming form. Suitable for a rock garden, raised bed, trough or alpine house. Oxalis are "an attractive range of plants with many being grown for their foliage as well as their flowers. The flowers are generally whorled, closing rather like an umbrella. Many of the flowers are light dependant, only opening when the sun comes out. Plant them 2 inches (5cm) deep in a rockery or else they grow very well in pots, either outdoors or indoors." from R.V. Roger. Other cultivars of Oxalis are available from R. V. Roger. |
