Weekend at Diana's- Oxalis palmifrons

Hi Lauw:
No, it hasn't bloomed. It was a little joke. I picked a white flower from
O. purpurea and put it in the O. palmifrons because everyone was complaining
that it never bloomed!! I have two different collections, but I still think
both are the same commercial one and that it is a non-blooming clone, like
O. melanosticta 'Ken Aslet'. I have two other clones of O. melanosticta
that bloom very well.

Diana,
I read with interest that your O palmifrons has bloomed. This plant
grows
extremely well here in all sorts of conditions, but never flowers. Any
idea what could the problem; could my form be genetically sterile, or is
it
the way it is grown.
Look forward to any help
Greetings
