Oxalis (succulenta & herrerae)

Hello John:
O. succulenta is from the Coquimbo province of Chile, and O. herrerae is
from Peru. They are different plants. I think your photo is of O.
succulenta, but I've never seen O. herrerae, so I am not really sure.

Hello every one !
I am John, new here; living in Champagne (France) please forgive me for my
poor English speaking.
I'm fond of succulents (mostly caudiciforms) but I love almost exotic
plants. ;o)
Here is my question:
I've got the plant on the picture (
http://62.210.160.29/ImgAlbums4/Images2/…
1.jpg ) from the Belgium botanical garden. They told it's Oxalis succulenta
(synonym Oxalis herrerae)
I can found on many sources that they are synonym, but on the ipni site for
example they are not synonyms. And if I search on Google, I can find two
different plants under these two different names, but mixed! I can't figure
what is the good one!
Is there anyone able to help me please?
Thanks in advance,
John.
