I use these purple Oxalis triangularis in pots and in the ground. They've overwintered in the ground here for 4 years now, but they perform much better in pots for me. Foliage of Callas that have finished blooming is still pretty, and the strap like foliage at the lower right of the pic is from some Pineapple Lilies I started from seed. I thought they would be large enough to bloom this year and didn't see any, but considering how big they've gotten, I feel like next year will be the year!
