Oxalis tetraphylla 'Iron Cross'

[Georgie]

Can anyone tell me if this particular Oxalis is shade tolerant please?

It will take light shade, but the more shade it is in the less spectacular the colouration.

Thanks Eric.

ooh Georgie - another lovely looking one - and it is part of the clover family - maybe it will bring you lots of luck.

Once again, good luck with growing it.  The leaves are prettier than the flowers really.

Mmmhh you are growing some unusual plants this year!

[Georgie]

Thanks Jitterbug.  This year I'm trying to grow things that are either edible, scented or wildlife beneficial (or a combination of these) and since half of my tiny garden is always in shade or semi-shade this is a challenge.  Thank goodness for all the wonderful advice and encouragement here, eh?   ;D

Er, sorry to disagree, but Oxailis and Clover are not related. Clover is a member of the Legume family and Oxalis is in a family of its own.
