r/oxalisplant

Growing in straight rocks and probably getting sprayed with salty water often

This oxalis emerged over a year ago in an outdoor potted plant far away from my two other oxalis plants, one purple one green.

From the beginning, the leaves were crumpled and few. The leaves start that way, they don’t emerge healthy and then crumple. I’ve looked up crumpled, wrinkled and all I get back are pictures of unhealthy oxalis. This plant is very healthy. Earlier this summer, I put it outside, fertilized it and it went crazy because for so long I only had two, maybe three leaves at a time. Now it’s even sending out flowers! Has anyone seen a healthy oxalis that looks like this?

Where there's a will there's a way

Out of one leaf stem comes another leaf, a flower spike and who knows what else...more to come?
