    It’s pretty. I like the purple middle. Most of the oxalis around here is the small green kind that quickly becomes a weed as it spreads and chokes everything. It’s nice to see oxalis I can appreciate! :)

    Another great picture series! You’ve given me ideas for some things to try in my flower garden this spring, and also to take pictures of things I have there already. Keep this up – I love seeing your gardens!

    It is so nice to see the new plants poking up there heads.

    I have three different ones and I think they made it through the Greenhouse freeze. Keep your fingers crossed for me / them. Someday I will again get the candy strip or cane one…whatever it is called ;-)

    how big are the leaves ? quarter size? neat design – i would never plant an Oxalis on purpose, but i guess in the desert they are easier to keep in line. The wild kind, i am forever pulling out of pots.

    Brant you are right on about the size of a quarter. Here in the desert they are manageable.
