Many thanks! . I received my oxalis regnellii corms yesterday and my granddaughter is coming over after school today to help me plant them in pots. There is so much about the care and history of the plant that I can now share with her. We plan to give them to family and friends for St. Patrick’s Day as the plants are hard to find in the stores.
I just got one today and I am so excited
I never had one so I’m doing home work
It’s so pretty
thats awesome ! Congrats ! 😀🪴
I just got my first one today! Didn’t know they came in purple, I’m excitedly looking for one immediately! Maybe I should wait though, to make sure I don’t kill it!😬😅
I've been in love with shamrocks for many years ! I've had a purple one for more than 15 years, a green one, called IRISH MIST for two years and recently I've bought two volcano oxalises I'm so happy now to have all of them!
That's awesome!😀 🪴
My shamrock and i say hello! 😂☘️💖Ive always loved shamrocks, Ive had mine for a little over 5 years, it's doing pretty well but i wanted to make sure i was taking care of it properly. I appreciate the care tips and the lore was really interesting! Thank you for sharing!💖☘️
Hi! Thanks for the comment! Cheers!😀🪴
Thank you for sharing! I love shamrock plants. My mother in law has had hers for over 50 yrs. They're so amazing and beautiful. I have the green with white flowers and the purple with pink flowers.
Hi! Thank you for watching! Wow! 50 yrs, that’s just amazing ! Love love love the shamrock!😀🪴
I just found this plant tonight by accident at the store and loved it so brought it home. Never heard of it. Thanks for the info and new subscriber
Hi Jeni! I'm so glad you found a Lucky shamrock of your own; that's awesome! And thank you for subscribing! 😀🪴
When I was given this plant, I was told when the stems got “leggy” to “shave” the plant. To just cut off the stems straight across the plant & it’ll grow back. So far I’ve not seen anyone else say that.
Hmmmm, I have never done that. I only trim off the dying stem/leaves. I do not sheer them. 😀🪴
I just got a shamrock after admiring a friends for years, thanks for the info!
I am so glad! I love love love our shamrocks! and All three of ours are going gangbusters and are refusing to ever go dormant ! It's crazy and they keep flowering all the time! I hope yours give you lots of happiness!😀🪴
So helpful to know about the dormant period!! Thank you
Now I’m wondering if that’s all that happened to my last one
Just got a new one today - so wanted to research more this time
Super helpful. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! Enjoy your shamrock!😀🪴
I have the green and purple shamrock and i had no one idea how to take care of it. So thank you for the help! I was scared it was drooping because i was killing it
I'm so glad you have shamrocks! ! They are so beautiful I love them! Enjoy! 😀🪴
The Green Oxalis ❤ my all time favorite to #Experiment 🎉 😊love the purple too as they are rolling in my collections.
I've never seen this plant before, but it is pretty. Thank you for sharing.
You're welcome ! Glad you enjoyed the video.😀🪴

Nice
Thanks!😀🪴
My lucky day❣️ I found your video💚 I have this plant and it died….I thought. Woke up this morning and there’s a leaf when there were nothing but soil and I continued watering as if it had leaves 🤣
That's awesome! She was probably just sleeping in her dormant period. Glad she is waking up!😀🪴
How can you tell if you are over watering or under watering? Should the soil always be damp? Do you wait until soil is completely dry before water? Clearly, I don't have a green thumb :)
Hi there, if you are underwatering, your shamrock will get very droopy. And if you are overwatering, the leaves will also droop but the shamrock stems will be plump and full with water, to find the right balance, just follow our weekly watering schedule from video and you should be fine as long as you have the right soil mix. 😀🪴
❤
Great video thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome , and thank you for watching ! 😀🪴
thanks for entertaining, informative videos.
Glad you enjoyed it! 😀🪴
Thanks for the great video, I just got a shamrock plant and am hoping to take good care of it with my wife :)
Hi! Thanks for the comment! And that’s so awesome that you all got a shamrock. Enjoy! It’s such a cool plant.😀🪴
thank you for the information, I rescued one from Lowes, and it did really well, but then started to turn brown and get white spots on the leaves and its been that way for a while, I repotted it to a bigger pot and it still has the same white spots. I don't have it in direct sunlight what can be happening, I wanted to repot it again but I'm afraid.
Hi, i am sorry that your plant is not doing so well. Are the spots on all the leaves or just some?
@@LETSGROWGARDENDESIGN Hi, is just on some of the leaves.
It could be those leaves have a fungus, you can look to add a fungicide to help control the problem. Or trim those spotted leaves off and let new growth come in. 😀🪴
Thank you I had started to remove the affected leaves and that did seem to help I will continue and also add the fungicide!
I love it
I'm so glad to hear that! Thank you.😀🪴
I have had my shamrock for several years and we thoroughly enjoy it. It was doing great but the bulbs are not more tubular and sticking out of the soil by over an inch and it isn't getting near as many leaves and become leggy. Not sure what to do, do I split the bulbs, cut it back or what? Also, when the flowers die, do you pull them off or cut them? I have leaves that die now too. Maybe it's just old. HELP!
Hi, it could be your shamrock is going into her lazy sleepy mode. You could throttle back watering and give her a rest for a month or so in a more lower light area. Then bring back to bright lifght area and increase watering to kick start her growth. Mine will sometimes slow down at different times of the year and their growth will look leggy too, As to bulbs, I wouldn't split them, but maybe add a bit of potting mix to cover the top of orange bulbs sticknig above the soil level. On old flowers, i cut them off. Hope this helps! 😀🪴
how did I ensure my shamrock will flower it is now got new shoots on it but their going laggy, Help😮😮s
If the new leaves/stems droop, it could mean you need to water your Sham a little more; but before you water, test the soil to see if dry. If soil is damp wait a day or so to water, but water well, all the way around the plant. 😀🪴
@@LETSGROWGARDENDESIGN Thank you for getting back to me.
What am I doing wrong if the leaves are turning brown 😣?
Hi there, it could be several things, overwatering ( dont let the soil be soggy- shams like water, but not standing water) Or it could be underwatering see if your soil is super dry to touch 1 inch down. Another culprit could be low humidity. Do you have a dry growing environment ? If yes, then add a pebble tray. Hope this helps😀🪴

I just rescued one from the nursery on clearance
Awwww thats fantastic! Thank you for saving her! I hope she brings you much joy.😀🪴
I just got this plant today, am i should put them in sunlight direction or put them indoor ?
Hi! I grow mine indoors and they love it. But it all depends on what you want, you could put on patio, but no direct sunlight and protect form winds. Hope this helps! 😀 🪴
I planted 20 shamrock corms in a pot indoors 7 days ago and I don't see any signs of growth. Is that normal? The pot gets lots of sun and good indoor potting soil. Any suggestions? Thanks
Hi! Just give them some time to get used to their new home. Could be a few weeks actually for new growth to show. But …When they are ready to grow you will start to see these adorable little curling stems popping out from soil! Enjoy! 😀🪴
@@LETSGROWGARDENDESIGN Thanks very much. And thanks for your quick reply. ☘️
like 5❤❤❤
Thanks 😀🪴
My work had them on sale for 1.99 under the name True shamrock plant .
Woah! That is awesome. What a great price! 😀🪴
I just got a shamrock (mine is red ??) and haven’t seen any videos on how to take care of it :(
Ohhh, if you are talking about the Oxalis triangularis ( reddish purple leaf color) we did a video on that plant too about a year and a half ago! I LOOOVE THE PURPLE SHAMROCK PLANT! 😀🪴Here's the video link. ua-cam.com/video/9A-snaj3i78/v-deo.html
I just got my first one today! Brought it home, took it out the bag, and it looked wilted! I didn’t know they close up at night!🫢 thought I harmed it, and was going to throw it away!😂
Hi! Hahahah Yes, they close up to go to sleep at night!😀🪴
Maybe now I'll have good luck
Hahaa I hope so! !😀🪴
Does purple also called a lucky plant or only green ! Is purple also spiritual plant
Hi! We know the purple shamrock to also to be known as the Love Plant. Shamrocks inn general ( purple and green lucky) have the spiritual connection because they both have w3 lobes to their leaves, but it it mostly the Lucky green shamrock that is attributed with spiritual😀🪴
My daughter kills everything I got her one and it’s dying any suggestions?
Ok, let’s see what’s happening. The lucky shamrock will sometimes go dormant and that is a normal process. I had one of mine Just go dormant a few months ago. She will look like she’s dying or dead to soil level but it’s ok. Reduce watering (1x month) and place in a med light spot. Then in the next month or so, increase watering ~1x week and she should start to put on new leaves shortly thereafter from her bulbs beneath the soil.
Now another thing besides going dormant is that if you are overeating or under watering your oxalis will wilt, check soil to make sure it’s not too dry or soggy. Hope this helps and your pretty plant bounces back soon ! 😀🪴
she put it one day in the bright sun. a nono then brought it back to me,would it help to just replant to bulbs instead of seeing all these wilted babies struggling. she says its just a plant but to me its the one Shamrock plant that made me fall in love and want more. i used miracle grow moisture care which is supposed to protect from over or under watering and feeds for 6 months. please help.is there a book i should have for taking care of them i now have 4.
I was very disappointed the transcript is in German or something. My eyes and ears both need help
I am sorry. I don't know why UA-cam translated it wrong. Did you try google translate?😀🪴
