Oxalis

Oxalis come in many forms colours shapes and sizes each adorable in its own way.

All are ideal alpines for front of borders pots and containers.

Pay attention some Oxalis species can become a nuisance in the garden.

Oxalis are perennial plants but can give the appearance of annuals by going dormant in winter or during droughts. 

Frost-tender Oxalis are sometimes treated as annuals in cold winter areas.

Many Oxalis species are hardy enough to survive outdoors in the UK.

Because it can become a problem in the garden, I chose to keep it in the pot.

It looks very nice, with small yellow flowers in contrast with beautiful purple leaves.
