This is two pots together but I planted quite a few in each pot and they are hanging over the edge. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… HOW BIG ARE THE FLOWERS, THE LEAVES LOOK VERY SMALL IN RELATION TO THE FLOWERS? Mary Sue Ittner <msittner@mcn.org> wrote:///Dear/ Paul, These flowers actually come in threes. That one Bob took a picture of was the first one open. Here is another picture of some that appeared in another pot showing the stem of three: http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… I had to wait for a sunny to day to measure them for you. The flowering stem is about 11-12 cms. (4-4½") tall so it is much shorter than O. bowiei. The flowers are about 3½ cm. (1½") in diameter when fully open or at least the ones I measured were from the tip of one of the petals to the one on the oppositie side. The leaves are very shiny and the flowers a pretty color. I wish I could share some with you. I placed it next to a Oxalis bowiei with the yellowing leaves and you can see the leaves really do look alike. I think the storage organ is different too. http://pacificbulbsociety.org/pbswiki/files/… One of the joys of Oxalis is the long period of bloom with different species starting in fall. I too am happy I got introduced to them. One that started blooming in October and is still blooming now in April I'd like help in identifying. My tag says BX? Since I am sure I'll have extras to share I'd love to figure out what they are. When they first came out they didn't seem very happy in the sun so I moved them to part shade and they have been blooming ever since. White to pale pink in color.
