Wood-Sorrel (Oxalis articulata subsp. rubra 'Pink Dream')
I wasn't sure whether I should post this in the propagation forum or in the bulb forum..
This Oxalis, with the years, makes corms on top of each other and also extension corms coming from the sides.. My question is if they can be taken apart for propagation?
Anyone has experience with this?

Myriam, I've never grown that species of Oxalis, but I believe that is natural vegetative reproduction on the extended corms. Those should be easily removed to propagate it. Does the plant gradually form a thicker clump when growing?

The Oxalis I grow is easily propagated this way.

Thanks Neal, yes they do form thicker clumps when growing.
Which species of Oxalis are you growing, does it also makes those extended corms?

This is the one I grow:
It has scaled, elongated little bulbs or rhizomes (not really sure which) that don't exactly have extended parts like yours, but scales broken off will easily grow into a new plant.

Many Oxalis propagate easily, and since yours does form a larger, denser clump, I'm pretty sure those extended corms are what is going on under ground as that happens. Sounds like an experiment is in order!

Sounds like an experiment is in order!

I think so too!

O. crassipes makes similar underground structures. Both forms of bulbs keep growing if separated & planted, as well as cutting the bigger "string of beads" parts into smaller pieces.

Thanks Tiffany! I've done the experiment of taking apart the mounted corns and the little side one attached on a long string, and planted them, we'll see..

Good vibes & good luck! I love bulb-type Oxalises!
