False Shamrock Burgundy Wine in the GardenTags plant encyclopedia

Oxalis triangularis 'JR Oxburwi' (Xalis Series) syn. Oxalis triangularis 'Burgundy Wine'

 

False Shamrock 'Burgundy Wine'

Oxalis leaves are palmate with 3 - 12 leaflets. Some species are invasive and considered to be weeds. Others make excellent ground cover or houseplants. Most are frost tender and suitable for greenhouses or conservatory. 'Burgundy Wine' is an easy to care for houseplant, it pretty much looks after itself. If you have a shady area on the patio you could move it outside over the summer months.
