Purple Passion

The Oxalis triangularis has purple heart-shaped leaves which are clover-like in shape. It has delicate pink flowers, similar in shape to buttercups.

This plant enjoys light surroundings and prefers to be watered directly on to the soil - it doesn't like wet leaves! It comes from Peru where it grows high up in the mountains; this means it also tolerates fairly low temperatures.
