- Oxalis care
In this video I am focusing on the general care for the most common types of Oxalis plants. There are a ton of gorgeous varieties and species of False Shamrock plants to choose from. Oxalis triangularis is the most abundantly available type found for sale from big box stores. How to grow Oxalis indoors is straight forward and simple. I am including the outline from the plant quick care just below this description. Along with talking about the general care for Oxalis houseplants, I covered dividing Oxalis, repotting Oxalis, fertilizing Oxalis and other odds and ends of growing False Shamrock plants indoors. Since these plants can be grown in a variety of hardiness zones, I made sure to include how to grow the Oxalis outdoors as well.
Light: Indoors give bright indirect to direct light.
Outdoors they prefer part shade to part
sun. Climates without extreme temperatures
and ample rainfall may grow in full sun.
Water: Moderate to high water needs
Only allow surface of soil to dry between
waterings. Do not allow pot to sit in water
for very long.
Soil: Well-drained and organically rich potting mix
can hold onto moisture for at least a few days.
Fertilize: Twice a month with an all-purpose fertilizer
diluted to half strength, only during active
growth.
Dormancy: When daylight lengths shorten, move plants
to less light and reduce watering. Once foliage
browns, remove and place somewhere cool,
dark and dry.
Propagate: Divide tubers when plants go dormant.
Pet Safety: According to many websites, Oxalis are NOT
considered safe for consumption by dogs & cats.

Oxalis holds a special memory for me. In third grade, our art teacher had a really large one and every year before Mother's Day she would have her third grade class paint a plastic pot for their mom and then she would pull divisions off her plant and we would pot them up for our moms. Now my mom had a brown thumb, so I would take care of it for her, but it sat in her bathroom window for years. It died when I went to college because, you know, my mom had a brown thumb.
I watch your videos even if the topic is something I’m not interested in. Never hurts to learn something new.🌷💚🙃
How sweet! Thank you!
🍀 That is the cutest shamrock pllant I have ever seen! I did not know there were varities of the shamrock family. I love the blooms!🍀
I just watched an ad for a beautiful dark green iPhone and... green foliage on the opening shot ... how fitting 😅 the blooms are so precious! In Kenya, I used to eat the leaves of the burgundy one. Tasted very very tangy, like rucola bit without the peppery flavor that rucola has. I did not know that these were grown as houseplants. Too cute 😍
I am not Irish..or I don't think I am but each year they sell this at Trader Joe's & I am so enamored by Oxalis! Thank you Jeff! Have an awesome day!! :)
I love the purple oxalis. I have a small patch growing in the shadiest part of my Florida tropical garden
I may be inheriting one of these soon, this was great timing for me!
Hi Jeff! I've never had one of these plants, but think they are so cute and pretty. My sister has had a purple one for years. I've never bought one because I didn't realize they would go dormant, but would come back. Now I may have to try one, but not sure if I have a window with enough light to keep them happy. Decisions, decisions. LOL! If I get one, I will watch this video again. Thank you so much for sharing!
Hi Jeff 🌴 its that time of year and I CAN'T STAY OUTTA THE GARDEN CENTER 🤣 ...I'm fixing to redo my porch with new hanging baskets , flower boxes on the railings , and cedar gazebo feeders for the birds 😁😁😁
Wow! That's a lot of really fun projects. The yard is going to look amazing!
Love it ❤❤ it’s mixed colors flower 🌸 I got the pink one @Green_Oxalis ❤ very very interesting plant for the garden. 🪴
Mine is tall and stringy it closes at night and opens during the day it's a purple one
I didn’t realize there were so many different varieties 🌷💚🙃
Oh there are tons of fun varieties to grow!
I love oxalis- I have the pretty dark purple leaf with a lighter purple center marking, and also the Iron Cross one- green with maroon center markings. The hybrids stay fairly well behaved, but the wild one with rounder plain green leaves makes so many little bulblets, that it spreads a lot. It is pretty though, with pink flowers, but only in a pot or hanging basket! 🌱
I have so many wild ones outside. You made me want to go buy a big one. Have robo to Lowe's to see what they have.
Thank you Jeff. 🌷💚🙃
Hope you're doing well, Judy!
@@TropicalPlantParty I hope your living your dreams as well 🌷💚🙃 It’s not nice out today but it’s not raining so I thought I’d go pull some weeds and clear out an area that was a HUGE mess. The pruner handles bit me on the finger, pinched me, and I looked down and it was bleeding, so I came in to attend to it cuz of course my hands were full of dirt. Deciding if I want to go back out and get beat up some more. That wasn’t a very nice birthday present, now I’ll have to tell the family I can’t cook I broke my finger besides it’s my birthday, your turn to cook. Thank you Jeff for the well wishes🌷💚🙃
@@judymckerrow6720 Happy Birthday ! 🍰 just a note -be careful with small bleeding wounds in the garden. Years ago the American Rose Society always had a banner on their home page reminding gardeners to be up to date with a tetanus shot, because the bacteria can be in the soil. I didn’t know that, now I get a booster about every 10 years. Be well! 🌿🌱🌵
@@grannyplants1764 Thank you, something’s always happening to me so I get tetanus boosters a lot. Better safe than sorry . 🌷💚🙃
great lil POT plants but take care, especially if you live in a warm client.......beware of them (not sure how hardy) but in New Orleans if their little bulbletts get into the ground they can become extremely invasive, the 'purple' leaf variety is much better behaved but still needs to be monitored
Not me glancing at an 8 inch pot that was originally full of orange oxalis, that is now a single leaf in the center because i forgot it on my radiator. Not one of the plants that tolerate living on a radiator. 😅
Why is mine leggy? I’m afraid! I love it and don’t want to ruin it!
OR, are they harmless, and i should just let them be? 🤷🏽♂️
