Native to Brazil, Oxalis Triangularis is a relatively low-maintenance plant.
care instructions:
Light: Oxalis Triangularis thrives in bright, indirect light. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, which can scorch its leaves.
Watering: Water the plant when the top inch of soil is dry to the touch. Avoid overwatering, which can lead to root rot. During the winter months, water sparingly.
Soil: Use a well-draining potting mix, such as a mix of peat moss and perlite, to prevent water from accumulating in the soil.
Temperature: Oxalis Triangularis prefers temperatures between 60-75°F (15-24°C).
Fertilizer: Feed the plant with a balanced liquid fertilizer every two weeks during the growing season (spring and summer).
Pruning: Oxalis Triangularis can be pruned to control its growth and promote bushier growth. It can also be propagated by dividing its bulbs.
