Though Oxalis has a bad reputation of being a widespread cosmopolitan weed, many exciting species are discovered and cultivated mainly from tropical and subtropical regions and are grown as perennials. Each individual species in itself is a prized possession and with proper care can grow successfully year after year.

Here in New York City, it can be difficult to give Oxalis an ideal condition to sustain good growth. Part of my objective is to offer suggestion and information on how it is possible to grow Oxalis outside even during adverse conditions and still create an acceptable environment to allow normal growth and flowering habits of the plants.

Though one persons methods should never be considered the gold standard on how these plants are grown; I only offer advice on how I have been successful and perhaps the reader will take some valuable bits of information from it.My next objective is to share digital photography of my collection of Oxalis. Hopefully through my photos and links to other sites photos, I can create more interest in the species. Please double click on my new photos to get an extra large, close up image. Anyone can also register and create their own personal file on this site of digital photography of their Oxalis.

This website is a non-profit site and my Oxalis, if available, can be shared or traded but never sold. Photos on my site are copyrighted and are the property of their owners. Usage elsewhere of these photos by virtue of a "common practice" which is questionable, often improper, is now indefensible.

Please feel free to use the contact me page if you want to get in touch. Most of all have fun with my site and enjoy. Cheers!
