Burgundy Shamrock (Oxalis triangularis)

Nearly all have came up, maybe 2 out of 10 never sprouted. Some spread out a lot more than others so I'm going to move them this fall. Really pretty once it gets going and lots of my friends want me to share some with them.

Love it!

They simply did nothing. When no sprouting happened, checked the planters and no bulbs were present. They all must have rotted or something.

Mine have spread thru out my nature areas. Just cover with mulch and they reemerge in the spring.

Love the color 😎

Planted in Spring of 2021: I shared some of the corms with a friend when I got them. I planted some in pots and some in various areas around the yard. Some came up more quickly than others, but I learned that when you have the top of the corm very near to the soil surface, they sprout all right. I think all that I planted eventually sprouted. I enjoyed them for their pretty leaves and little pink flowers. A couple of months ago, I potted up most of the ones that weren't already in pots. I ended up with quite a number of corms for every corm I planted. I shared them with another gardening friend. I brought the rest that I'd potted in for the winter. A few are still outside in a sheltered spot. I'd grown this kind of oxalis before, and it survived a mild winter outside, but not the next winter, which was harsh. That wasn't a sheltered spot, though. I have quite a lot of the oxalis plants on or near the windowsills in the house. Despite two occasions of giving some corms away, I'm pretty sure that I have more now than the 25 corms I got originally. That's fine. I found this to be a nice little plant that tries hard.

Bought these to fill in areas where clay soil has not been amended and they sprouted quickly and are producing little flowers and large clovers.

From the original 25 bulbs/corms planted in one 12 inch pot or so, I have made 4 12 inch pots, plus about 6 6 to 8 inch pots. I have both let them now stay in the pot and completely dry out and bring in to basement. I have also kept in a 50 degree ( most of the time) mudroom over winter in seasonal home and they stay alive ( actually get leggy, so probably better to let them go dormant), and also have dug them up and divided the corms and saved them in peat moss in just brown paper lunch bags and stored in basement and replanted them in the spring. seems like each original corm can produce a bunch of corms...some get pretty prolific and produce I would day up to 25 or so per original corm. Also pretty drought tolerant and can neglect them.

I put them in a cute pot and give them away as gifts. They come right up. I tell my friends to bring them in in the winter. It's the gift that keeps on giving. I will keep purchasing them.

I bought 7 bags and gave away a bunch to friends and none of us were able to get a single sprout. After waiting 2 months I contacted customer service and it took 2 weeks for me to hear back only to find out they reshipped my order. I'm super disappointed that I wasted so much time and energy on them and at this point I just wanted a refund which I expressed. Hopefully, the next set will at least germinate.
