Whitebeard said:The only oxalis I have here is definitely not that. I get the shamrocks, but I like them and do tend to leave them alone. As the saying goes, a weed is only a plant in the wrong place. Wild flowers they are!

Is it there in the UK?

Yes, we get oxalis in the UK - some are hardy enough to survive and some are considered weeds. But yours is very pretty; if it appeared in my garden I would be happy!
TBGDN said:I remember this plant well back into childhood. As Cal mentioned he nibbled on the leaves revealing the "sourgrass" taste. So did we as children. It grows profusely here as a weed. Wild violets are thick here in the gardens too. These two are considered "weeds" but who can refuse seeing their blooms in spring? Ah, the memories of childhood..... Thanks Cal for a nice memory & banner!
