Oxalis triangularis subsp. papilionacea

A friend gave me this in the autumn and it has spent the winter looking a bit, well, wintery, then all of a sudden it has done this! 💜🤍 Since it is also edible I’m hoping it does well enough for me to risk eating some 😬 #oxalis-triangularis #purple-false-shamrock

That’s lovely Jacqueline 💜💗💜🤩

Thanks Julie and all the better for the way they just seemed to appear from nowhere! 😃 @juliesgarden

Exactly 😍

It certainly looks good enough to eat

😂 Though I’m not sure how much they’d fill you up! @joannie.a

Have you tried eating it?

Yes but only a leaf as it’s not huge. They’re a bit lemony @brightcolours

@KathyB have you tried eating the leaves on yours!?

@brightcolours I find them a bit too sour
