Seriously, this is objectively the BEST video on these plants on the internet. It's information dense, you show exactly what your talking about in each frame, the time lapse is like the cherry on top of the video at the end lol. All the "what-if's" were covered and I wouldn't even bother searching a single other video on this plant. Great Job!!
Many moons ago I threw away a beautiful Shamrock that I had no clue it goes dormant. I purchased a green and purple Shamrock four months ago and both went dormant. Thanks to your video I now have beautiful bushy Shamrock plants.🥰☘
My mother gave me a gallon size clay pot with a few oxalis leaves. Eight yrs later it seems to be solid bulbs. It’s never gone dormant. At least now I can put her in my cool basement and start over early spring. This is the first complete tutorial I’ve seen. Thank you so much! 🪴
I found some in an overgrown flowerbed at an abandoned rental. Thought they looked amazing if a little spindly. This video was just as great a find! Thank you.
I'm so happy I found your video - THANK YOU! Seriously, this is the best source of info I've found. I've read so many blogs/ articles and watched so many videos, and I finally found the answer to my question here. I wanted to know how much the corms could be broken apart and still produce viable plants. Thank you for answering that! Not only that - your whole video is a great overall tutorial.
Thanks, I'm glad you found my video so useful and that I was able to answer your question. Oxalis corms can be broken into surprisingly small pieces so you will be able to make many new plants even from a small corm.
I love my oxalis! I live in Northern VA in the USA and put my oxalis triangularis outside in the summer. Typical daytime temperatures are 32-38 degreees Celsius (90-100 F) with high humidity and the oxalis does great. I don't put it in direct sunlight though. I had mine in dormancy in a paper bag in the basement all winter and i am excited to follow your process to replant it and put it back outside!
They are very adaptable plants, if you avoid direct sunshine and keep well watered they can tolerate higher temperatures. I grow mine almost year round, I just give it a few months rest over the darkest winter months.
Thanks for this video (and the rest). Living in the UK means we don't get many video sources that are applicable to us. Being in the north east of Scotland means you are the only source I have found: just as well you're good!
What a timely video! I bought a pothos last week from someone in my town and she always throws in a bonus plant and I got one of these. It only has two stalks but I love the deep purple foliage.
That's a nice bonus plant. They can fill a pot pretty quickly, your two stalks should be about 10-20 by the end of summer and by this time next year you'll be able to split it into several new plants. You might also get some flowers by the end of summer, although they flower most just after a dormant period.
@@Gardeningat58N Good to know thanks! I wish it would handle our cold Ontario winters but we have hit -50 celcius at night. It would look great in the garden,
First video that I’ve found that talks about the fleshy root in addition to the bulbs!! I’ve been having a terrible time finding much good info (in videos or articles) to explain that root and how to split the bulbs! Thank you!
This is the video that saved me from having a heart attack! I live in San Antonio, Texas and for around 2 weeks we've been in a heat wave with temperatures between 103°F (39.4 C) - 108°F (42.22°C). My Oxalis was outside and hadn't been watered enough because it went dormant. I know it goes dormant in winter but I was surprised it does it in summer too. I thought I had killed it and my brother was going to be upset. So thanks for your helpful information which calmed me down and also for the tip about laying a bulb on it's side. Very smart and so sensible. I do have a question. If I had watered it regularly would it still have gone dormant in these extra hot temperatures?
With temperatures that high it would probably still go dormant even with watering, if you keep it in the shade and well watered it is less likely to go dormant, but extreme heat usually causes it to go dormant regardless.
One tip with Oxalis Triangularis is not to put your plants too close to a window! They lean towards the light and can end up with the leaves "sticking" to the windows! Other than that absolutely bullet proof!
I've only had mine 4 months. It had quite a few leaves. Now there are only 2 left. Now is Autumn here in Australia. Do I leave it dormant. Do I have to fertilize it. This is the best video I have seen. I was losing hope with my plant. Thank you so much🌹your video was so helpful.
... Zone 6 here Michigan ....I love this plant and makes a great house plant as it adjusts well to indoor light and temps well here... dormancy during winter in frost free garage ... and like me one 3 inch pot will soon become hundreds to share ... great Video you have made... sometime the little bulbs flower before leaves appear too ...
Awesome video! So well presented. I have five varieties and all of them have gone through ugly phase and dormancy at one time or another. Sometimes all at the same time 😄.
This is really helpful. I have one that's been repotted once when my husband got it for me for mothers day, about 12 years ago. I was going to repot, but now I think I will put it into dormancy first and then divide it up and repot. Thanks for the help with this.
That's beautiful! I've never seen or heard of those. I love the triangle leaves. Very cool. The timelapse was very cool, too. Thank you for sharing about these.
It's not a plant that I see very often in the shops or garden centre, but I know several people who have them. They are so hard to kill and so easy to propagate that although they are not often seen in the shops a lot of people do have them and share them with friends. One cool thing that the time lapse didn't show is that the leaves close up every night.
@@Gardeningat58N when I google this plant here in Australia it states that it's invasive. Just thought I'd mention it for others. I'll only have it as a pot plant so no worries here. BUT I could have easily popped some in the garden as a little feature so..
I think there’s different cultivars even if they’re unintentional. My mum grew these in the topics in filtered light. They didn’t have any dormancy. She sent them to me in a milder Mediterranean climate where I’ve been growing them indoors since. They seemed to go dormant going into summer with a lot of light but when I watered them less they came back starting in the hottest part of hottest summer on record with full light. Five days over 40 degrees where I have no aircon. The dormancy seems to be a trend not a rule. They’ve done best for me in direct sun. I only got about 4 bulbs and they were tiny and have never produced flowers in any conditions. But they’ve produced as many heads as you’d expect from bigger bunches.
Magnifaikkkk 👏 super capsule, pas tout compris mais avec les images je sais mtn qu'il ne faut surtout pas les jeter en fin de saison et les laisser hiverner, hihi Merci top et bonnes pensées de 🇨🇭☀️❤🫕🍫⛑🇨🇭🕊🙏🙋🏻♀️
wow so beautiful!! mine has got some rotting petals, i think it is because we moved to belgium from portugal and because of the climate. as the winter is coming i will repot it and hopefully it will grow back healthy. thank you for the video!!
I took some bulbs from my fathers garden. It is in Puerto Rico. Totally tropical area and does better in full sun. I plan to grow the bulbs in Miami. Thanks for the info
This is my spirit plant. I am having an episode with mine. 2 leaves have came through and that's it. I've reported it in a bigger pot and hoping for the best! Pray for Prince, that's its name. 😂
Put these in my garden several years ago. Was hoping they would naturalize and spread like other oxallis I've planted. Unfortunately, they didn't. Hopefully, using your suggestions will allow me to propigate them.
It could be your climate, these plants are subtropical and won't survive being frozen unless they are buried deep enough to protect them from being frozen. Also they tend to clump and spread slowly so often they need separating to help them spread.
Here's a subscription and a bell for a great video - especially the timelapse at the end. Amazing footage! Thank you for showing me my plant at its own time scale.
Hi, two interesting facts: 1. This plant is grown as a leaf and root vegetable in South America and was culturally appropriated as a houseplant for western markets meaning you can eat the leaves and flowers and roots raw and cooked and actually tastes quite tasty and 2. As I sadly found out you shouldn't put it near roses because if rose rust gets on it it will rapidly spread it and kill it in days unless you use chemicals that make it no longer edible. So now you know some important information about this plant.
@@maureensullivan7448 No they are not and I am so fed up with stupid UA-camrs claiming they are that I am now going to film myself gobbling the leaves of mine with a topping of solanum nigrum berries to prove both are safe. Do not call me a waambulance, but perhaps call one for yourself for your heart attack?
I live in the Caribbean and I received one yesterday….only have 1 bulb and 5 stalls…the lady before kept it outside..I’ve repotted now…should I keep it outside or can I bring it inside? How should I care for it outside?
In your climate they can grow indoors or out, keep it in a bright location which gets good light levels, but away from direct sunshine. It can also grow in low light conditions, but it will grow extremely slowly.
Well I accidentally cut off a couple of healthy leaves, they were so pretty I put them in water. They lasted forever and to my surprise grew roots!!! So I now have 3 plants. I didn't know about the heat that explains the summer I thought I lost them.
If you do put some of these in the garden I would love to see an update in the summer. I want to put some of mine outside but we're in a rented property so unfortunately I cannot do so 😢
hi ive had my plant for 20 years Its the Mother OF All ; Ive gave so many pps the Cones, and they are the easiest plant to look arfter. I have them outside in pots, as well , and they can grow any where. I had some growing all over my lawn where the wind blow them i was amazed to see them .
У меня есть такой цветок - оксалис, вот как оказывается он называется! Зимой у меня обгрызал мой котик, Марсик, листочек только из земли вылезет, а он тут и съедает. А летом травку ест, и цветочек вырос, красивый стал!
I had one in Central Texas for over a year. In a Terra Cotta pot under my pecan tree, I recently brought it in due to the cold and my cats started to pee in it, I've put so many plastic forks in the pot and my cats do not care. It looks like it's dead but I really hope it's simply gone dormant.
It's roots have probably been burned from the salts and acidity of the cat pee, you can either try to flush it all out with lots of water, or you may want to dig out the bulbs and replant them in fresh compost. The bulbs are probably ok and so should regrow once the soil is free of the salts.
Great video! I didn't know that you could snap the little bulbs apart and get more plants from it! I live in Pennsylvania in the US and had mine outside during the summer and brought the pots into the basement in the fall after frost killed the foliage back. They have sat inside for about two months now, so would I be able to repot some for a houseplant? I have these purple triangularis and also the Iron Cross, but the Iron Cross has a different type of bulb or tuber, whatever they're called.
I have this plant, which at this time of year what I'm reading will go dormant. I recently noticed it has fruit flies or gnats. Should I reply and just reply any roots when I take it out of the pot?
My mother had this plant in house, never went dormant, I have a piece. I have a new one that blooms and is great but the leaves can get browned on the edges, why does this happen? My mom's was 20 years old and never had a bad leaf?
If they’re so easy to propagate, would it be possible to dig a wild one up and save the plant? I have some in my backyard I’ve grown attached to that I want to take with me when I move soon 😭
Yes, if they are in your garden you can dig them up and grow them in a pot. You may notice a few leaves die off after digging them up, but they will soon recover.
Help! I tried your basil trick, cutting from the node and putting in water. The roots started to grow at the bottom and are white, but there are a lot of roots coming out the side that are brown. Is that normal?
It's normal for some roots to grow from higher up on the cutting, they are usually brown if they are unhealthy, which can be from too much light hitting the roots or issues with the water. If roots are still growing and the leaves look ok I wouldn't worry, just make sure you bury all the roots when it comes time to transfer the cutting into soil.
Mine seems to be having random green splodges like it's bruised and super flimsy and leggy. Tried some feed for it, different light conditions etc but it looks miserable! Worries it's spidernats due to the random green but not sure what to do
Mine do this occasionally, I think its damage to the leaf, but it could be from a wide variety of different things, check if there are any bugs like aphids on the leaf. My plants mostly show this on my outdoor plants after we have very windy weather.
I recnety got one of these as a gift. It currently had 5 stems with leaves on. One of the stems is really long and sticks really far out the pot. Should I leave it long or cut it back
I would leave the long stem, but if you think it looks strange and you want to make the plant look neater you can always cut it off, loosing one leaf is not a big loss for the plant. If more leaves come up on very long stems its a sign that the plant needs more light.
Yes you can plant them now, you will get about 3 to 5 leaves from each bulb in the first few weeks, then over the next few months you can expect about 30. They size up quickly when grown in the correct growing conditions. After six months your plant will have grown enough to split and create numerous new plants. Since filming this video I have already had to repot the small pots as the plants have grown very fast.
It depends on temperature and humidity, but usually a few weeks, in ideal conditions it can be up to 6 months, just check to make sure they are not drying up and shrivelling. Keep them somewhere cool and dark.
I have a question, I broke off some of the stems and they grew roots. Will they one day grow a bulb? (I basically tried to water propagate them and gave them to a family friend who planted them, but haven’t seen new growth yet)
I wouldn't expect leaf stems from Oxalis to grow roots, however as you've managed it, I would expect that if it can grow roots then it should form a bulb over the next few weeks.
Seriously, this is objectively the BEST video on these plants on the internet. It's information dense, you show exactly what your talking about in each frame, the time lapse is like the cherry on top of the video at the end lol.

I've been looking for plant care videos for Oxalis, so far this one is the most informative and helpful. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
Definitely one of my favorites ❤ Thanks for sharing what works for you ❤

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed my video, good luck with your Oxalis, they are tough plants that live for many years.
Thank you for your help in caring for my plant 🌱 😁 I had no idea it should go dormant.

Thanks, I hope you find my videos useful, the Scottish climate can be challenging at times with the dark winters, cool summers and strong winds.
Thank you so much for this. I thought I have killed my triangularis. Stay safe🙏🏻
I didn't know this either so glad I didn't throw it away!!!
Best video and explanation for Oxalis I've seen so far. Thanks a bunch for making this. It was very detailed and answered a tons of questions.
Thanks, I'm glad you think so, I'm happy I was able to answer a lot of your questions.

You should have loads of rhizomes if your plant is 12 years old, so you'll be able to divide it up into many new plants.

It could be for a variety of reasons, such as dry air, strong sunlight, high salt/feed levels in the soil or the leaves getting old.
Mine grows a few new stalks every 2-3 days but they only last 2-3 days as well. Any ideas?
If they’re so easy to propagate, would it be possible to dig a wild one up and save the plant? I have some in my backyard I’ve grown attached to that I want to take with me when I move soon 😭
Yes, if they are in your garden you can dig them up and grow them in a pot. You may notice a few leaves die off after digging them up, but they will soon recover.
@@Gardeningat58N Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing ❤️
Help! I tried your basil trick, cutting from the node and putting in water. The roots started to grow at the bottom and are white, but there are a lot of roots coming out the side that are brown. Is that normal?
It's normal for some roots to grow from higher up on the cutting, they are usually brown if they are unhealthy, which can be from too much light hitting the roots or issues with the water. If roots are still growing and the leaves look ok I wouldn't worry, just make sure you bury all the roots when it comes time to transfer the cutting into soil.
Oh i have this plant 😀
Mine seems to be having random green splodges like it's bruised and super flimsy and leggy. Tried some feed for it, different light conditions etc but it looks miserable! Worries it's spidernats due to the random green but not sure what to do
Mine do this occasionally, I think its damage to the leaf, but it could be from a wide variety of different things, check if there are any bugs like aphids on the leaf. My plants mostly show this on my outdoor plants after we have very windy weather.
I recnety got one of these as a gift. It currently had 5 stems with leaves on. One of the stems is really long and sticks really far out the pot. Should I leave it long or cut it back
I would leave the long stem, but if you think it looks strange and you want to make the plant look neater you can always cut it off, loosing one leaf is not a big loss for the plant. If more leaves come up on very long stems its a sign that the plant needs more light.
Con que lo fertilizás?
Thank you for all your helpful tips on caring for this beautiful plant. Cheers
can you eat the tubers you pulled off?
I think you can eat them, but they contain oxalic acid and so shouldn't be eaten in large quantities.
How many stems will you get from one bulb? I have 6 bulbs. Will I only have 6 plants? Can I plant them now in May?
Yes you can plant them now, you will get about 3 to 5 leaves from each bulb in the first few weeks, then over the next few months you can expect about 30. They size up quickly when grown in the correct growing conditions. After six months your plant will have grown enough to split and create numerous new plants. Since filming this video I have already had to repot the small pots as the plants have grown very fast.
How long can the extra tubers stay good for without planting?
It depends on temperature and humidity, but usually a few weeks, in ideal conditions it can be up to 6 months, just check to make sure they are not drying up and shrivelling. Keep them somewhere cool and dark.
@@Gardeningat58N Thank you!
I have one of these and I have two stalks it’s been like that for about three years! Dunno why it’s not spreading, help!
Hey I have a question about drainage for pots, my pot doesn’t have a drainage hole, could I use rocks and perlite to help with drainage??
Just drill some holes in the pot!!!
I have a question, I broke off some of the stems and they grew roots. Will they one day grow a bulb? (I basically tried to water propagate them and gave them to a family friend who planted them, but haven’t seen new growth yet)
I wouldn't expect leaf stems from Oxalis to grow roots, however as you've managed it, I would expect that if it can grow roots then it should form a bulb over the next few weeks.
@@Gardeningat58N thanks!
Can this plant be propagated by cutting leaves?
