Van Zyverden Oxalis Triangularis Set of 12 Bulbs Purple Partial Sun Perennial Deer Resistant 1 lb

These purple shamrocks (Oxalis Triangularis) are often seen around St. Patrick's Day, and often called The Good Luck Plant due to their four leaf clovers. They are easy and fun to grow and their striking, purple foliage really sets them apart. If you have limited space or do not have a home garden, you may prefer pot culture, as they are easier to care for and do not take up much space. As long as you have some space for a medium size pot on your porch, patio, or balcony, you can grow these Lucky Clover plants. Oxalis triangularis is also known as ‘Charmed Wine’. Plant this perennial in a location with partial sun. Keywords: Van Zyverden, Oxalis Triangularis, deer resistant, purple, USDA Hardiness Zones 7-8, 1 lb

• If you want to save oxalis year to year, be sure to dig the plant from the container/garden before the first frost. One method of storage is to remove all the foliage, brush the soil from the tubers, wrap when dry in newspaper and overwinter in a cool, dry place. Or, if in a pot, move the tuber-filled container to a place cool enough to keep the plants dormant, but warm enough so they don’t freeze. An insulated but unheated garage or basement works well. Water very sparingly – just enough to keep the tubers from desiccating. Oxalis also can be a houseplant; however, indoors it can go dormant two or three times a year for several months at a time. When it starts to go dormant, the foliage will die back. Reduce watering and stop fertilizing the plants at this time. When you see new growth, begin the water-fertilizer regimen again. Indoors, place oxalis in a bright window, but out of direct sun.
