Oxalis Triangularis Mijke

Oxalis Triangularis "Mijke", or simply Mike, is a variant of one of the most sought-after houseplants, with solid purple colored leaves and light pink to white flowers. 

These are mostly perennial plants, with rhizomes that profoundly grow leaves, divided into three leaflets like clovers that resemble a butterfly. They flower abundantly and can be grown inside or outside.

This order includes the bulb/rhizome and not the full oxalis plant. The bulbs look like tiny immature pinecones.

Purple Shamrock Info

• Light: Thrives in bright indirect to bright direct light.
• Water: Water every 1-2 weeks, when the top 2 centimeters (1 inch) of soil becomes dry. Make sure your pot has drainage holes. Expect to water more often in brighter light and less often in lower light.
• Humidity: Any humidity level will do. Normal room humidity is fine.
• Temperature: Best not to let it go below 60°F (15°C).
• Fertilize: Once a month during the growing season using a slow-release blend. Pruning: Pinch off any dead foliage.
• Propagation: You can get your oxalis to multiply once a year by propagation - separation of the rhizomes.
• Dormant season: Winter
