There is also Oxalis articulata which forms finger-like tuberous stems above
ground. it produces mounds of fresh green leaves almost invisible under masses
of pink flowers, a nice edging plant and never a weed. This one definetely
flowers all year in suitable conditions and is widespread in mild European
gardens and is perhaps hardier than expected.
Dear Uli,
This description fits in exactly with what I call here O crassipus. It has
been in flower September-Octobre but his main season is March-April. It
has no bulbs but rather "knobly" rootstocks. A very good garden plant here
and not at all weedy.
Have a look at the pictures in the Oxalis section in our website
http://www.bulbargence.com/ . Let me know please if I got the name wrong.
The Oxalis in flowr here:
. O masoniorum, flava, hirta (sp and Gothemburg) ,
Kind regards
